Useful

When should I see a cardiologist?

It is worth booking a visit if you notice any of the following:

  • raised blood pressure
  • palpitations or an irregular pulse
  • shortness of breath with less effort than usual
  • chest discomfort or pain on exertion
  • swollen ankles, fainting spells or dizziness
  • high cholesterol or a family history of heart disease
  • a preventive check-up or an assessment before sport

Emergency – call 112. Sudden severe chest pain, shortness of breath at rest, loss of consciousness, speech difficulty or sudden one-sided weakness need an immediate call to 112, not a booking.
