angiography

Morning all

Haven’t posted in ages been overdoing things have swollen hands but I suppose it could also be the heat.

Due to have an angiogram just wondered if any of you warriors have had one and did RA cause any extra problems.

Wishing you all a good day xx

I had one many years ago. It wasn't painful and nowhere near as bad as I feared. The only hicup I had was at the end when they lifted me from the treatment couch back to my ward bed....the tube snagged and got yanked from my groin. It took some time to stop the bleeding but it was no big deal. I believe they no longer use an artery in the groin to insert the catheter but somewhere in the arm instead.

Thanks for the reply at least they picked it up early and I think it will be the wrist hopefully I will be nice and sleepy xx

They didn't find any issues with my heart, by the way. Hope you have the same result.
