Myy husband had a stint placed in his heart. He still has chest pain with noticeable swelling on the left side of his chest.

He had the swelling before the stint procedure. He also gets pressure and feels weak with these episodes. Nitroglycerine causes the symptoms to subside.  The episodes always occur when he is totally at rest. He has no medical insurance so is reluctant to seek medical attention.
