Flue jab ?
In February I had a cardiac arrest but I am now recovering well after a stent was fitted and a month in hospital after getting pneumonia. My question is has anyone else after having an heart attack got any experiences of having their annual flu jab. I'm wondering am I safe to have this in October? What

Concerned
Good morning all, Back in November, I’d had a stent fitted as I’d had a 90% blockage in my LAD. The CT Angiogram done before the Angiohram detected narrowing in multiple arteries. I was 44yrs of age then. Since I’ve made positive lifestyle changes. I’m left wondering though, how is any of us routinely

stopping bisopromol
Hi All, hope you are keeping well. In the last 18 months I’ve paid privately to see the consultant who put the stent inside of me. It started with paying for an echo cardio gram and also a fitness test because I put it down to the meds I was on, but that general feeling of dog****. Fatigued.

Stopping blood thinners after having a stent
Hi everyone, The Doctor has advised my dad to come off his blood thinners which he was put on after having a stent due to a blockage in his artery, he has said to stop them because his stomach is too delicate to handle the blood thinners and it's causing ulcers, my dad's worry is now that he is off them

Wide QRS interval
I saw a consultant last week as a follow-up to a bypass nearly six months ago and to discuss how I was getting on with bisoprolol after a switch from Sotalol. I haven’t had any AF since bisoprolol was increased to 10mg but I had some quite fast AF in December prior to that. I still get a lot of PVCs

Angina after CABG x3 and Clots
I had cabg x3, aged 56 on 16th September this year followed by internal bleeding, AF and collapsed lung. (I never do anything easy!) Was meant to be a quad but I had no 4th vein to use. Was sent home after 10 days in hospital. 2 days later was rushed in A&E by ambulance with a Saddle Pulmonary Embolism

Stent procedure Dec 2022
Been experiencing short breath, ie I need the need to take deep breath quite often, the cardiologist suggested an angiogram as all other tests seems ok. I was explained that if in the process they will see a balockge of over and above certain % a stent will be inserted. In short I end up with one stent

Leg Question after CABG
Hello Just a question on how people's leg wound has behaved after Vein removal for use in the bypass op. After 7 years mine has started to play up with a little pain around my ankle well more than a little pain really! My Dr has asked for a doppler test to see what's going on as I have also just developed

cancelled procedure
Hi everyone just to update you all, I had a blood test on Monday which was needed to check everything before my procedure on the 25th . Had a phone call yesterday and was told since December my red blood cells had been going lower over last three blood tests. Because of the blood thinner I would need
