Hi

Speak with your General Practice or your Consultants Secretary.

Take the Meds you have been prescribed., and expect some discomfort BUT if you feel it's beyond just uncomfortable call 111 or 999

Stay Safe Take Care

Hi I had heart attack and angioplasty and 2 stents in November. I also had pains and the cardiologist said that it will settle down. It can be die to bruising from the procedure. Still mention it. My gp gave me Ora morph if it gets too painful I take it and it settles down. Wishing you a speedy recovery xxx

Hi Junaidubai, I had angioplasty in September. It can be uncomfortable afterward due to bruising, but the breathlessness needs checking with a medical professional. Call your cardio team, or if it gets worse, emergency services. Take care!
