Hi all,

Just an update on my personal journey.

I had a heart Attack in April with two stents fitted into my RCA. Fantastic treatment from the NHS!

Then following a stress MRI ( I found this Very unpleasant)a stent was attempted in another artery but failed due to them finding my LMS blocked so was referred to Cardio thoracic Surgeon at Barts. The night before my appointment I had raging tooth ache so emergency appointment with my dentist at 9.30am. Given antibiotics and booked in for extraction on Wednesday! Then cab at 11.15am up to Barts where I saw the Surgeon who was very positive and has said I will have a CABG in about six weeks!

Many thanks to everyone who posts on this site as the information gained from personal experiences is invaluable,

I will keep you updated
