You’re out of the hospital already? Do you mean NG (nitroglycerin) only your doctor can tell you when to use it. If the ER didn’t tell to you should follow up with a cardiologist. He may want to perform tests to evaluate the degree of coronary artery disease you have. You will have to control your blood pressure, change your diet to low fat low sodium, control your cholesterol, lose weight if you’re overweight. The cardiologist might want you to participate in cardiac rehab when he/she thinks your well enough to do so. My brother had 2 heart attacks within a year each time he had to have stints put in when they unblocked his arteries. He is okay but you do sometimes suffer from depression after a heart attack.
