Hi all, hope everyone doing as well as can be - couple of questions . Does anyone suffer heart pain, a dull ache ,? Also I’m on water tablets but every time I need toilet to pee I’m wanting to poo as well. Even if I don’t need it, ring a bell with anyone? Thanks scott

👋 hi
I have an ache and heavy feeling on my chest but I cannot help with your other problem, I’m not on water tablets, hopefully someone else may be able to help !!
spend half my life living with pain in my chest region, usually lower left breast area, but some time the sternum area or middel right lower breast. Each day I survive on a cocktail of Rivaroxaban, Epleronone, Bisoprolol, Candesartan & Monotekulast (with my Blue and Brown Inhalers).
When I took Furisomide I could time my toilet trips almost to the ten minute intervals for the first few hours - and sometimes I would enjoy a bowel movement as well. Now I'm not on it, I don't have the urge, so clearly that was the one doing the job in that respect.
I think what you are experiencing is withing tolerable norms, but if you have any concerns speak to your Cardio NP, if you haven't been assigned one yet, speak to your GP.

Thanks brand - for me it’s like a tenderness or dull ache on the left of my chest which is where the dilated lv is - I have had pain there over the years and put it down to muscular but it feels slightly different now - obviously all my meds are trying to improve the blood flow etc I’ll mention to nurse on Monday- thanks again and good health to you !
Hi, I also have this dull chest ache, pee/poo problem, so you aren’t alone with this problem. I take diuretics twice a week and I am on the usual cocktail of drugs but I also have Diverticular disease, which is genetic so I always assume the problems are down to this but perhaps it’s not.
I get pain under my right ribs and in my back.
It’s been good being Shielded as I’m never far from the loo. When I’m out and about I have to plan so I know where the toilets are.
Keep smiling, it confuses people!
Hi, thanks for your nice reply. My GP always says to me how can I look so well and be so ill, nobody then believes you are so poorly! Just take each day at a time and carry on it’s all we can do.
I’m the same - long story - however I remember as a 20 year old when my disability was finally diagnosed - a very lucid moment when I asked myself for the rest of my life will I be disabled or not ? At that time financially I would’ve been better off ! I decided no- it’s not me ! So much so that even if I’m a wheelchair or scooter my friends would forget I was disabled ! I’ve fought every day and now with this hf will continue to do so. Like you say keep smiling !!
