Waiting times for bypass surgery
Morning all, I had a heart attack in April and two stents fitted into my RCA. After subsequent stress MRI scan went to have another stent fitted into my D1 on Friday but unfortunately unsuccessful due to the cardiologist finding my LMS significantly diseased which was not picked up on the Angiogram,

High Cholesterol
Hi, anyone else experience high cholesterol despite having a healthy weigh/diet? I’m 35 and so not smoke. Currently feeling so anxious, my cholesterol is high 5.7 😢 the nurse further scared me by saying how this increases my risk of heart attack and stroke. I do experience chest heaviness and palpitations

Post Heart stent back pain
I was in an acute
coronary
unit for a week that culminated in
angioplasty
and a Stent. I have to go back for another in a few weeks. Since then I’ve had a very dull background back ache between my shoulder blades. Is this normal?

Change of Lifestyle
Hi I had my heart attack in June. It was a shock. After having a Stent fitted I came home and now on lots of medication. I am struggling with stomach pain. Just wondered if anyone else has experienced similar? It could be a side effect of medication..or chronic indigestion. I had this checked out at

Chest pains 9 months after heart attack
I had a heart attack and stent fitted last October and have been pretty good ever since. I’ve lost weight and started playing golf again. Things were good but then had bad chest pains 2 nights ago. I used GTN spray but was very dizzy, almost passed out and had severe sweating. By the time the ambulance

Angina
I had a successful stent procedure in LAD artery October 2019 and overall am keeping very well. However, every now and then I seem to experience a couple of days where I just feel under the weather and very, very tired ( like before stent) and I just wondered if others experienced this?

No input from hospital after heart attack and stent fitted.
Hi My Mum had a heart attack last summer and had a stent fitted. She was released from hospital on a Saturday afternoon with little information and has had no input from the hospital since... is this normal? I thought she would have had a follow up or at least a consultation on how to improve her lifestyle

Will I ever feel better?
After a STEMI heart attack in April (Troponin peaked at 92,000), I thought I was doing pretty well. Back at work full-time, exercising, it was all going fine. I’m “only” 50 and have teenage kids who want to do more than I’m able. Previous to the HA I was pretty well, despite having dilated cardiomyopathy
