Diagnosis Checklist: Questions your doctor may ask (and why!)
During a consultation, your doctor will use various techniques in their assessment of Artery symptoms.
Your doctor may ask several questions when assessing
your condition. It is important to remember that your consultation is a two-way process and any extra information
you can share with your doctor about your symptoms may help them with their diagnosis.
Some of the questions your doctor may ask are listed below:
- What symptoms have you been experiencing? Symptoms arising from arterial disease can be quite general, and it is best for you to begin with exactly what has brought you to see your health professional today
- Have you experienced any pain? - Arterial dysfunction can result in pain, which can be quite severe. Severe arterial occlusion as a result of vascular disease can be felt as constant excruciating pain.
- Have you experienced any pain in your peripheries, particularly when they have gotten cold? - Raynaud's syndrome results in a predictable and unpleasant progression of symptoms of your peripheries in response to cold or to emotion. First your fingers/toes may become very pale, then bluish, then finally red and painful.
- Do you ever notice that your feet or hands are particularly or unusually cool/cold, especially at night? - This can be a symptom of arterial or vascular disease, as there is diminished and abnormal blood flow to your peripheral tissues (hands, feet).
- Have you ever suffered or been diagnosed with ischemic heart disease, myocardial infarction/heart attack, or angina/chest pain? - These can be symptoms of arterial disease, and can also cause or predispose you to a wide variety of arterial symptoms.
