Hello, this is very difficult to advise as this would normally be given to you by the team who are looking after you. Have you not been given anything? I advise you go back and ask, or ask your GP who knows your current health situation. Take care :)

Hi. If you haven't done already join the British Heart Foundation group on this site as there is lots of information over there.

Cardio rehab is really important and needs to be done right (I know I've been there and it was the hardest 10 weeks of my life getting back to fitness) so as well as speaking to your doctor and cardio team at the hospital as Ju-ju suggests do contact the British Heart Foundation as they have lots of guidance and access to medical professionals.

Good luck with your recovery.

As above, we can guide you with the running, but not with the heart side of things, and you may need to be taking extra precautions once cleared to do this, for example keeping under a certain heart rate. We do have people here who’ve taken it up following a heart attack of course, so there will be knowledgeable support for you once you’ve started your journey.

You mentioned BHF above... they too have a forum on HU healthunlocked.com/bhf where you may find advice that’s more helpful than anything you can find here just now.

When cleared and ready... you can do this. Enjoy your journey to a healthier future.
