Work and heart disease

[Prl43]

Hi I'm fairly new here. Had a stent fitted 26th june still experiencing chest pain, diagnosed with angina (ischemic heart disease). Advice needed on returning back to work as i am a key worker, very concerned about working closely to public during covid -19 pandemic. Any advice would be appreciated.

Yes, I had 2 stents put in around 12 weeks ago, now getting those symptoms, told its probably angina and given GTN to use when getting the symptoms.

Hi

I had bypass surgery in February this year and returned to work on 1st June. I too work in social care and was nervous going back but honestly everything is done to protect people. We wear full PPE when having contact with clients and I feel okay about it

You will find the measures in place now are excellent

Good luck x
