WHAT IS GOING ON

Discharged 17th may

medication stopped

Nitrolingual spray

Mononitate pills

Renaxa something ?

I thought I was doing well . Gentle walks around the house. Can manage the stairs . Showers are slow but fine .

Last couple of days noticed on walking up stairs I was feeling heavy on my chest . Not much but different ,

Monday evening walked upstairs sat on my bed my chest felt it was getting even more tight . Mentioned to family I didn't feel well .

Then the horrid pain of it going up my neck and down my left arm 😱😱😱

Used a spray I had at home nothing happened

Called 999 and now at my local hospital . Not where surgery was done,

so far

Hemogloben levels low ?

Oxygen levels low

Chest x-ray good .

I'm now on a gtn drip

Some one mentioned possible ^something spasm" can't remember

Finally just got settled in a bed 4am now Tue morning 😭😭😭

Any one else had angina pains after bypass ????

Did they say a "vascular spasm"? It has to be remembered that OHS is very invasive and touches many areas. Post surgery I developed an electrolyte imbalance and anemia, and had issues with my right hand where the nerve through the shoulder got tweaked. Hopefully it is a one off like that and not genuine angina - I suspect so as the GTN spray did nit work. All the best going forward

Who knows what's going on !!!!!!!!!!

Exclamation marks abuse doesn't help in a heart related forum :).

Sounds like you got fast tracked after bypass and you wasn't quite ready for the support to deminish , I was borderline with low heamaglobin and potassium so I ate lots of liver a, broccoli ,spinach etc for good iron levels and a multivitamin to help me along and I also hammered the breathing apparatus to get oxygen in and cut the walks to 1000 meters a day until week 8

Don't let them kick you out to early if you don't feel right :).

A bit on the super sensitive side are you

[Deanosbeano in reply to ChicagoGirl1961]

Yeah my own heart problems were amplified by emails and stress at work where apostrophes are common place .

Shame you decided to post more on purpose actually knowing I was sensitive tho ,very humane of you

Cheers.

Nothing on purpose Dean, I have not read your previous posts. And no offense intended, however you stating that Jellybean's post was abuse was a bit over the top. Wishing you well.
