Breathing Post MI

[donslad]

I had a heart attack in Feb 2017 which resulted in 2 stents being inserted since then my breathing has continued to get worse and no one seems interested. Is this a common problem after a MI

I was breathless until my medicines were changed (HA Dec 2017 - dosage finally sorted Aug 2018). Worth making a GP appointment to discuss your medicines and dosages. I suspect you've found that emergency care is outstanding but followup leaves a lot to be desired....

Hi

I think as Calliope has already indicated I would start with a close look at your medications and read to check which ones have implications for breathing problems. Maybe your statins or beta blockers maybe??

Are you on TIcagrelor? IT's well known for causing a feeling that you can't breathe. See your GP and get a medication check.
