My husband was complaining of pain this evening that seemed to migrate from chest to lower - stomach / trunk. He has a fear of his heart failing and becomes anxious when he has anything resembling chest (heart) pain. I'm just wondering how one would know if it were heart vs. other muscular cramping and if it is common to have such pain as the disease progresses. He has ftd as well and so a difficult time expressing his thoughts and what exactly he is experiencing. However, he didn't appear to have other symptoms of a heart attack but this has happened before and I do wonder if we would know if it was cardiac problems vs. muscular. (Sorry if this is one of those silly, obvious questions.) Thanks in advance for any advice, experience from PALS and CALS.
