Recovering from heart attack

[brads27]

I had my attack eight days ago,and had six stents put in over two days,now I feel breathless and anyone else had the same symptoms?

Hi Are you able to call the cardiac ward you were in at the hospital? Any chest pain? If in doubt call 999, better to be safe than sorry. It could be the meds you have been put on but better to get it checked. Good luck.

As suggested, worth checking with the experts. Are you taking Ticagrelor? I found it made me breathless. Best wishes. Mike.

Hi

So sorry to hear about your Heart problems

What cocktail of drugs are you taking?

Both Ticagrelor and Bisoprolol have side affects of making you breathless. Like others have said I would check with either GP or cardiac nurse if you can. If it gets worse or you get chest pains or arm / jaw pains then call 999 or at teh very least 111

[brads27 in reply to Hidden]

Yes I am taking both of them,Ticagrelor and Bisoprolol.

I’ve had breathless with a different heart condition before and after surgery.
