Coronary artery disease (CAD) anyone have any advice for someone just been diagnosed

[contrarymary]

After going backwards and forwards to GP and emergency and cardiologist I have been diagnosed with CAD which has been a shock

i have been given a diet plan and told to come back in 12 months and if I experience chest pain go to ER

does anyone else here have CAD and can they offer advice on living with it day to day.

My local hospital runs are cardiac rehabilitation clinic but due to covid it's not operating.

as you can imagine my stress and anxiety levels are at a all time high

Hi,welcome

I might help you with your anxiety.

Anxiety can be a serious illness however, hopefully, as it has increased with your current circumstances it could be a temporary event. Certainly it justifies professional advise starting with your GP.

You might also get tips from the following threads- use google-
