I was diagnosed with ischemic heart disease in the past. Persistent angina pectoris. I have 4 stents since 2012. A month ago, I underwent a coronary angiogram and were supposed to implant bypasses and new stents. I walk 50 meters and press my chest. And I was a top athlete. Doctors are pounding the alarm and I ask,
Is it really so serious?: I was... - British Heart Fou...
Is it really so serious?
Hello and welcome to the forum! I am confused by your comment "implant bypasses and new stents". Bypassing is major surgery whereas stents can be considered minimally invasive. I had four severely narrowed coronary arteries abs stents were being considered but went out of the equation when a peer review felt bypassing was the best option. Do you know which arteries are affected? And yes if you have constant angina it is serious.
Hello Michael.
I signed up today on this site. My condition has deteriorated, I don't even go outside, because after a few tens of meters it starts to push me to the chest and block me. I don't have anyone to consult, I'm an introvert, I hate to bother someone.

Hi Maro. I’m not sure from your message whether or not you’re talking to your Doctor about these pains. You should be as this could be serious. Good luck.
A month ago, I underwent a coronary angiogram. For the third time since I underwent a coronary antiogram. I have four stents since 2012. Now cardiosurgery wants to implant bypasses. It's pulling and I'm getting worse and worse. Unsolvable situation.
Hi Maro. I can see how this would make you anxious. There are lots of people on the forum who’ve had stents and a bypass and who are doing well.
It seems that you are in a similar position to the one I was in the months before my bypass. As a month has passed ring the cardiology secretary on Monday to get an idea of time scales.
After my angiogram I needed further tests which included, in my case, a CT scan, echocardiogram, kidney ultrasound, carotid arteries scan and a chest X-ray. These can sometimes drift.
You removed a second post that mentioned the Williams Agressive Treatment. This is designed to reduce cardiovascular risk by normalising BMI, cholesterol levels (should be 4.0 or below) and HbA1c (if diabetic or pre - diabetic).
A final note. If you feel your condition worsening call 111 or even 999. You will not be wasting anybody's time!
Michael ,
The last angiogram examination was diagnosed by JL4, JR4 and Williams. The agency judging the opinion for UC makes it easier. First of all, I need a lawyer to solve this extreme from UC with a health assessment. I'm looking for a lawyer to appeal.
Hello Maro1961. Have you had your bypass yet? I am unclear what you are asking? JL4 and JR4 are types of catheter, and I have discussed Williams previously. I am not clear what you are referring to with UC (are you in UK?). Also why do you need a lawyer?
Yes, I live in Britain. I have 4 stents, I have clogged blood vessels now, the operation did not take place in March due to Covid 19. You know, you are not deciding on the progress of the operation. I'm just a statistician. Doctors decide the council, whether one or two bypasses or what next.
They canceled my statement of fitness for work and I haven't operated yet because operations have stopped for Covid19. My GP doctor is not prescribing now because the GP is quarantined and closed. My GP doctor doesn't understand how they could revoke my Statement of fitness for work. I don't understand either. I'm waiting for surgery and they cancel my Statement of fitness for work.
I need a lawyer to return my Statement of fitness for work. My doctor does not understand why they do not respect cardiology medical reports. The doctor in cardiology also doesn't understand how they could repeal the Statement of fitness for work. This is what health assessment agencies do that work externally for UC.
Sorry I am still unclear. Did Universal Credit say you are fit for work whilst your GP and cardiologist say you are not?
It does not do universal credit but an agency that works for universal credit. This is not a doctor.
I had this issue with ATOS in 2013. You need to appeal.
This agency also bothered me. I need a lawyer, because I will not win this fight with bureaucracy myself. I'm too tired now.
Hello Michael. Two times my heart has stuck in my life. I have a daughter doctor, I never told her I had problems. He lives in a country other than an introvert, I don't trust anyone. I reconciled to the fate of what will happen to me, it will happen. I just don't know how much time I have. I haven't finished my job, which is my life.
I have a very good GP doctor now. Caring, smiling and pleasant. A patient with a severe illness needs a smile that warms up.
Hi wishing you all the best hope u start feeling better
I try to draw, but I sleep a lot lately. I am afraid to eat because I feel sick and I have to go to sleep immediately. You can get used to the pain, but later it's bad.
