Question: what are anginal equivalent symptoms?
Answer: Anginal 'equivalents' (i.e., symptoms of myocardial ischaemia other than angina) such as breathlessness, faintness, fatigue, and belching have also been reported (Gersh et al 1997). A classic feature of stable angina is the disappearance of pain after the use of nitroglycerine or the inhalation of amyl nitrite.
