Is there anyone who is in my position

[blackseve]

I have full plaque block on my left ventricle so it is not working, my right ventricle is working fine

surgeon advises I just carry on as things are, as I get no pain my angina is stable, I exercise good with long walks , you can't tell how long it's been blocked without me knowing , is anyone else in the same position as me?

Have another meeting end of this month with surgeon to decide my problem so could do with a chat if its possible.

hello again, you asked a similar question 3 days ago

the problem is that your question seems a little confusing as you refer to a block of your left ventricle, but if your left venticle were completely blocked in a standard way you would be dead

so it seems that your cardiologist has not really explained what is wrong in a helpful way and it might help you to call the BHF Helpline 0808 802 1234 ( (during office hours) and ask the staff to help you understand more clearly - then you can be clearer in asking for support fromm others with the same condition

we can only help if we understand what your condition is and your description does not give us enough information

Thank you for being so kind, I will take your advice and call them,

hello apparently when my left ventricle / artery blocked my right side moved and got the bad blood that couldn't get through on the left and purified the bad blood , if that makes any sense

that sounds like a very odd interpretation of what happens in your heart - i think i might be helpful if you could spend some time with someone who could help you to understand the basics of how a heart works - then they could help you understand how your condition affects you

as an ex biology teacher and nurse i have experience in both areas, but i can not be with you to help you, so it could help you to find someone near you who can explain this in a way you can understand
