- chest pain that radiates into your neck, jaw, arm, or back
- sweating
- shortness of breath

|

You can’t check your arteries at home, but you can track your blood pressure, oxygen saturation, and heart rate to gain more insight into your health. You can then share the biometric data with your doctor, who can perform diagnostic tests, such as a cardiac stress test or angiogram. |
Your care team can also help you develop a management plan to avoid complications and protect your health. For example, eating certain foods and making lifestyle changes may help prevent clogged arteries from worsening and lower your risk of heart disease. |
