It is quite common for your angina to stay the same for years without getting worse. In some patients, angina symptoms may disappear for long periods, while in others the attacks may become more frequent and more painful.
The underlying cause of your angina cannot be reversed, but effective medication can keep you pain-free. The aim of medical treatment is to reduce your symptoms and prevent you from having a heart attack. If your angina becomes severe or if your medication no longer relieves your symptoms, you may need a small operation . However, your GP or a doctor at the hospital will decide if this is necessary and answer all your questions.
