Thanks, Jana. What I was thinking about was a hidden occlusion of an artery somewhere. It would become more evident with higher blood pressure.

Patrick, A heart can be fine but if doctors don't check out limbs too, like with an ankle-brachial index test (blood pressure taken on legs and arms on both sides), then they may miss something. I'm sorry your medical system over there is not as good as it could be.
