Stopping me breaking something returning to racing
Thanks to the encouragement from members of this forum I am now back up to parkruns again. I am now looking to enter club 10k races. I am speaking to my GP next week and ideally I would like to get their clearance, or a cardiologists, on how hard I can push myself. The surgeons did a good job and I

Hi everyone, I'll try to keep this one short today and not write a doctoral dissertation of emotions. That's how I feel and at least with my "community fam" - it's a no judgement zone. I'm feeling fair since the Kidney Stone/Lithotripsy Stent Procedure surgery. That's a mouth full (right) - some days

Travel insurance to cover Endometriosis when waiting for surgery
Hi all, I was just wondering if anyone could recommend a travel insurance provider that would cover me for Endometriosis and Hydronephrosis (due to Endometriosis). I am struggling to find anyone to insure me because I am on a waiting list for a laproscopy and i need my kidney stent changing in June.

BP with COPD and Thyroid
I’ve been on 75 aspirin; bisoprolol 6.25mg daily; Ranolazine 375mg twice daily; and PRALUENT injections from when I had a stent fitted and my bp 145/78 pulse 58 which was great but my bp has gradually increased to 157/85 pulse 67 , I was on Allopurinol before stent was filled but I kept swelling up!

Angiogram vs Angioplasty
I have had 6 stents and triple bypass. Each time I had a stent put in, they started out as angiogram and became angioplasty, each time they went in they put in a stent if needed, except that one time when I needed bypass. Now my Cardiologist wants to do an angiogram, then discuss his findings with me

I know I was 'lucky' but.....
A random post just wondered how others feel. I had my heart attack 9 weeks ago a stemi totally blocked artery RCA, had warning signs for a couple of years sometimes out of breath and felt like bad indigestion ignored them (as you tend to do!!) called it my 'funny turn' it would pass after 5-10 minutes

heart failure…. How to help
Hi all, my husband has been diagnosed with heart failure in the past few days. He is currently in hospital following a high AF attack. He is also a diabetic - they are tinkering with his meds currently- but no mention of surgery. He had a stent fitted five years ago. I’m so frightened that I am going

Listen to your body.
Hi all, just a reminder to have any symptoms checked out. I had a left side stent fitted in January 2019 and went through the usual worries and stresses with this unexpected procedure. Lost weight and kept up my healthy walking habits along with upper body exercises. All went great until 3 months ago

Well tomorrow morning I will finally know whether I had a stent fitted during my last angiography at the beginning of September last year. If I haven't it's going to be a bit of a dilemma as to whether to go for a stent or not as I have been relatively angina free (and when I have had its been relatively

Update
My visit to breast assessment clinic yesterday after my recent mammogram showed an area of concern in right breast. I had cancer with treatment to my left breast 2020 so an area of concern in my other breast was not what I wanted to hear. I spent the afternoon having scans, ultrasounds and several
