chest pains
I had a stent in my LDA 4 years ago. Over the last 2 years I have had intermittent chest discomfort symptoms which tie up with unstable angina, although nitro spray doesn't help. 2 years ago had a myocardial perfusion scan which showed good blood flow to the heart. Still getting the discomfort, though

heart attack
I had a heart attack twelve months ago and had a 4.5 cm stent fitted to LAD. All test are clear but still get pain sometimes - consultant has told me that I have blockages in minor arteries that will cause angina pain but not serious. Is anyone else in this position? thanks Richard ❤️🩹

Statins causing muscle and joint pain.

no stent-tortuos artery
Hi all who replied. I did have angiogram, apparently the LAD is 65-70%, then another part 74%, BUT it is what they call a tortuous artery, really curved and twisted, looked like a country lane on the angio, with corners! So apparently difficult to stent and made the decision not to and treat with meds

Feeling emotional
Just wanted to get things off my chest! I had a heart attack out of the blue on 31st May. I have written a very long story about it in my bio. My hubby is working abroad. I care for our 3 teenage children and the oldest is 19. When I was back in the ward after my angioplasty and stent, I phoned my husband

Heart attack
When I add my heart attack, I also add 2 cardiac arrests while they was fitting a stent. Now I have been diagnosed with ischeamic heart disease. I was wondering if anyone knows how much damage cardiac arrests cause to your heart

First and foremost, I really have to thank all on here that contribute so much time and knowledge to those of us in need. It is very much appreciated. My basic history: I remember back in college around 1998, my calves would go crazy at night like spiders crawling under my skin. It would come and

Switched from Methadone at 10 mg to Buprenorphine 10 mcg
Good Morning, As of June 2023, I began with 5 mg of methadone, and gradually increased it to 20 mg by August. I reported to the forum in early November, a transformation occurred, with the leg spasms virtually gone, caused by RLS at night. I began tapering off, and reduced it to 7.5 mg and have remained

Neupro Patch Weaning
I’ve read most of the forum’s input regarding Neupro Patches and relayed the information to the physician. He has decided to optimize the Gabapentin dose and discontinue the patch. A bit of history…….. the patch was started 12/19/23…10 days ago. Prior to that, ropinirole was weaning off (dose on

Escape from Augmentation
I have continued to make progress on my path to getting my dopamine receptors back to somewhere near normal. I last used a DA patch in September. I am using buprenorphine patches and pregabalin as RLS blockers to assist in the process. There is some improvement (perhaps 60%) in my sleep regime and in

Heart Attack- 1 year review of medication
Good Morning, It will be coming up to a year soon of having my HA & Stent fitting. I will get a review of all medication I currently take, I would like not to be on any! But I feel anxiety of coming off them and having another HA. I guess this is normal. I’m just looking for any advice or your experience

Numb hands
After my sHA and stent I now wake up with numb hands, almost like pins and needles. I mostly wake on my back so it's not from lying on them. It goes away after a few minutes of being awake. I wondered if anyone else has experienced this. Ta 😀

Difficult week
After my last admission I was experiencing considerable pain again , went to hospital & after ecg was blue lighted to Belfast. I was having a stemi and my right artery was blocked. A stent was fitted straight away but unfortunately I went into cardiac arrest afterwards, I'm so lucky I was in a hospital

best time to take statin and BP meds
Hi, wondering what the consensus is on best time to take these meds . Originally, I was told to take BP medication’s at night along with my statin. While in the hospital, getting my stent, I was told to take my BP medication in the morning and the statin at night. Thank you

Hydrocodone to Tramadol?
So the USA ran out of Hydrocodone 10/325 due to DEA putting limits on annual production. My last fill was 11-6-23. Luckily I had saved up 90 units for emergency (proof I'm not abusing) but that ran out yesterday. I asked my doc to prescribe tramadol hcl 50mg to get by until production resumes. Started
