Feedback:
Anginal syndrome can be aggravated by cold wind, emotional stress, strenuous activity, anemia, and tachycardia. Cross-country skiing would be strenuous and could precipitate the development of anginal syndrome. Golfing, gardening, and sitting in a spa would not likely cause the development of anginal syndrome.
