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

Angioplasty
So got two calls from the NHS today - 1 setting my telephone appointment with the cardiologist next week and the 2nd setting my appointment for the procedure the week after. I’m concerned they’ve contacted me quickly because my heart is in more trouble than I’d care to imagine… I know the risk of serious

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

Rampiril, half a 1.25mg tablet & a 1.25mg bisoprolol. Why the Rampiril ? 🤣
I wonder why I’m on such a small, fiddly dose of Rampiril? My bisoprolol was lowered from 3.75mg to 1.25 last September and the half 1.25mg Rampiril added. My BP is always 107-115 over 68-75 , resting heart rate 44-49 bpm. Been running 5k 3 times a week plus other activities. 7 months months post CABG

failed CABG
had cabgx2 in May. Today I had angiogram which showed one graft was blocked and the other partially so. Has anyone had a similar experience and if so what was the treatment. They have made urgent referral to MDT and said they will plan what to do next. Options suggested were further bypass, stenting
