6 days post 3 Stents
Advice please post angioplasty (3 stents) 6 days ago. I’m having more pain now than I had before I went to the doctors in the first place. Is this normal? I have an appointment tomorrow and shall mention it, but I’m feeling a little anxious as to why I feel more pain than I ever have up to now.

Stroke update…
Transferred from Harefield following stent fitting and mild stroke to Mount Vernon North London ( Boris constituency ) for a few weeks of rehab. Half vision still and both left leg and arm much weaker. Amazing staff here who push you to regain both muscle strength and confidence. Finally i must apologise

What is “normal “ tiredness
My 83 year old dad had stent inserted 11days ago Also has pneumonia which is easing But he is so extremely fatigued-despite having a good 10 hours sleep each night he falls asleep at the drop of a hat through the day Is this to be expected at this early stage ? I think it is but he’s anxious over

Thank you.
Just wanted to thank everyone who gave help and reassurance in my recent post about my husband who, at the age of only 40 and previously fit and well on every way, shape and form, was admitted with ?unstable angina 7 days ago. Well. Today he underwent the angiogram which showed two arteries were blocked

Waiting for stent but anxious about catching covid
Hello- I’m ‘5-7’ weeks from an angiogram/stent…. Taking Asprin/atorstatin/amilopidine (sp!) and feeling fine. But several of the kids and teacher in my sons class have tested positive for covid in past week…. We’re (still!) negative. Is it a terrible thing to get covid if 47 and severely blocked LAD

Painful arm post angioplasty
I had angioplasty last Friday with two stents fitted. I have a very bruised arm from wrist to above the elbow. Today, out of the blue my forearm went into a very painful spasm /cramp. Still painful after two hours. Cardio nurse says take painkiller. Has anyone else experienced this?

Angiogram & Angioplasty
Hi 6 months ago I was sent for a CT angiography after getting shortness of breath and pain in my left arm walking up a hill. The scan showed a narrowing in my LAD artery and I was put on asprin & 80mg statins. I have had no further angina symptoms for six months but I have been scheduled to have an angiogram

Happy and blessed
I had a quadruple bypass procedure on 16/9/21. I only started developing angina in June whilst exercising in the gym ( my usual week consisted of three gym sessions and three rounds of golf). Having consulted my GP I was seen quickly by a cardio nurse and then an angioplasty was performed in August

Weak, breathy voice
Hi, I've posted on here before, my husband had an NSTEMI in June last year and a stent fitted. Since then his recovery hasn't improved and we still haven't got a diagnosis. He is unfit to return to work and he has these episodes which are increasing in number each week. He feels an uncomfortable pain
