Nicotine Patch helps immensely.
For the last week, I’ve been wearing a 7mg nicotine patch with amazing results. Almost every night since I’ve slept through the night. My symptoms have improved, I have a much better sense of wellbeing. Nicotine has been known for years for its medicinal properties. Eggplant has the second most nicotine

Cardio and thyroidism
5and a half years ago I suffered a heart attack. I had a stent implanted and went to cardio rehab. I have noticed over the last year I get tired quickly and have shortage of breath. I was shocked to be told by my new doctor that I have an underactive thyroid. My question is this! Is my heart contributing

Support For Partners Of Those Who Have Had Heart Attacks
I had a heart attack whilst i was on my own at home. I had just sat down to watch tv and was having a dip of JD & coke when i developed a pain in my chest. I thought it was indegestion as i hadn't eaten very well that day, but then i got pain in my wrist that spread to my hand. This was the alarm bell

Follow up to Monday CABG
First of all I want to thank you all for the messages of support i received before my operation on the 19th of February. The good news is that my triple bypass was a success ! I spent a total of 10 days in hospital, I had a few ups and downs, but overall I have had a positive experience, albeit sometimes

I’m confused
So I posted before last year as had been having chest pain and pain in my left shoulder and arm which woke me from sleep on several occasions. I was referred to chest pain clinic at local hospital and tests and scans has revealed a considerable blockage in LAD. I went for angioplasty and they concluded

Waiting time between MIR and results
I was diagnosed with coronary heart disease, some years ago and put on a collection of medication. I was sent to have an angiogram, where it was found I had 90% blockage in one artery. I was then sent to have an MIR scan for more investigation which may, it was said, lead to further treatment including

Cold feeling in centre of chest
Does anyone else have this. I am having a stent done in January and also have moderate aortic stenosis. Over the last few weeks I have been getting this cold feeling/dull pain in the centre of my chest. The frequency of this happening is increasing. Am I alone with this. It may be totally unrelated

Stent and cough pain?
Hi, I had a stent put in my LAD just over 3 weeks ago. If I cough it causes a pain in my chest which is only present during the cough. It dissapears as soon as the cough process is done. Feels muscular but as you know post HA any pain or sensation in the chest has you reaching for Google with worry

I had a medical crisis, I didn't die, I wonder why
Last summer I had a medical emergency. The odds were it would kill me but I survived with few life threatening consequences. The problems I had are commonly fatal for 80 year old men. There is a message in my experience which I hope to share with you in this article. It is a bit longer than most

Heavy cold
Apologies if this seems quite trivial but I have had a heavy cold for the past 2/3 days which at present is getting worse. Have tested negative for Covid so no concerns about that so I’m just wondering whether to miss my medication tomorrow or whether it won’t make any difference. I take 20mg MTX but

I got covid and went to hospital. They said I have severe heart failure. Since leaving hospital my pro bnp level has dropped significantly. I think the covid caused the heart failure. Anyone hear of that happening?
