The Kawasaki Disease Forum

This is the kind of information the Dr's do not tell you about or "choose" not to share. "Although coronary vasospasm has been described in young adults with a history of KD....." Really!? First I heard of it.

Sounds a whole lot like the symptoms some of the young adults on this forum are experiencing:

- syndrome of chest pain at rest
- most episodes in early am hours
- exercise tolerant
- pain felt under the chest bone
- pain can spread to the throat, neck, jaw, shoulder, or arm
- occurs most often in people with high cholesterol and high BP

Thanks for this post. When I bring Wes for his consult with his new cardiologist I will ask about the possibility of him having CAV pain.
