angina

A client of mine has asked me to help her in finding out questions that relate to her mother. After asking her several questions I now have several of my own.
My clients mother has had a cardiac caterization which shows no blocks in the coronary arteries. Her mother was questioned about conjestive heart failure as she gets congested and the cardiac caterization showed some minimal changes in the heart wall. My first question id does congestive heart failure
result in angina?

Well angina is usually caused by an oxygen deficiency to the heart muscle, so a heart which cannot pump out enough blood to satisfy the bodys needs (CHF) then could. Shortness of breath is the most common symptom associated with angina/CHF.
