Aortic aneurysm surgery

Unstable Angina worries
I had a stent put in in October 2020 and everything was ok I had a few visits to A& E with chest pain but since them I’ve walked over 500,000 steps starting in March this year and my recent Echocardiogram was fine I only discovered my LAD Blockage when I had a routine Angiogram so it was a shock I continue

Getting my head around my diagnosis
Supposedly a fit and healthy 40 year old Male who started getting chest pain during exercise about a year ago. Diagnosed with atherosclerosis about a month ago and fitted with a stent 2 weeks ago. It's been a rollercoaster. Scary and unexpected but coming to terms with it slowly now. Stopped smoking,

Problems after MIGS surgery
Hello I had a stent inserted in my eye in early April to reduce the pressures. Unfortunately I am now being told that the eye has healed too quickly and there is no flow from the stent so I need to go in again for repeat surgery. Has anyone been through a similar experience? Rgds

Heart attack (Stemi) and unable to stent because of ectatic Coronary artery
A heart attack which resulted in the complete blockage of the Right
coronary
artery. When they looked via the angiogram/
angioplasty
they found that the artery was ectatic. That means apparently that it is not uniform in cross section , and not smooth in end to end shape. They could not stent.

Can’t believe it
I had a silent heart attack last Wednesday and an angioplasty Saturday, at home now resting but it doesn’t feel like I had an attack and can’t believe it. The angioplasty seems like a bad dream. Bit uncomfortable and slight pain but surreal feeling anyone else feel or felt like this

Early days advice after heart attack
I had my heart attack last week. I am 49 with no underlying health conditions other than carrying an extra couple of stone. I eat healthy, exercise when I can. It's still early days for me. I am waiting on Cardiac rehab, I have heard mixed reviews about this. Will be 3 weeks post HA until I speak to

Pericarditis flare up ten days after vaccine su
Might be a coincidence but having pericarditis flare up, mild enough, chest pain eased by ibuprofen and paracetamol- Gp phone consultation put me back on colchicine- had weaned off it two months ago.. disappointing. Anyone else had a post vaccine flare ? Still grateful for vaccine so not complaining
