Will I still need tablets after stent?
Just a quick query. Soon I will be getting a stent on a major blockage which seems to be causing my mild angina. I'm currently taking Bisoprolol fumarate and Ranexa to counter angina symptoms. After getting the stent can I expect to stop taking the two tablets or does it vary from person to person

Heart Medication
Hi I’m waiting for a heart bypass I’ve got pre op in April I’m wondering if after surgery do you need to stay on Angina tablets for life or do they stop after surgery. Thank you hope you are as well as can be Sharon.

The old vegan vs other nutritional diet comparison persists
I have been following a strict vegan diet program since 2015. I began to hopefully slow or reverse my diagnosed heart disease. Did the conversion help with either? Who knows? It is, I believe, not something that can be definitely proven. But, I believe it has helped, so I’m content with the change. But

Tric and aspirin
You will prob be on aspirin every day but the tric usually only a year after HA and stent. My husband was on it for a year and bled alot if he scratched or cut himself. Usually causes this but it stopped after he stopped taking it when the year was, up

Travel Insurance with a Stent
I'm getting a stent soon. Just wondering - will this make travel insurance a lot more costly or difficult to obtain?

Heart Bypass
Hi all I’m knew here I’m waiting for a heart bypass and a valve replacement. I’m very overweight and trying to lose weight before op. I’ve had my anaesthetic pre op and he said that due to my size my recovery will be harder and I need to get my lungs as healthy as possible and I will probably be in Intensive

Erythritol has been linked to blood clotting, stroke, heart attack and death
Purified stevia leaf extracts (Truvia, PureVia, others) use this artificial sweetener and I was wondering how this would affect those on blood thinners, like Warfarin, who must maintain a certain pro time level. There was a study done in Cleveland and reported widely with some unexpected results. I

pretty gutted and looking for some inspiration.
I’m sitting here feeling pretty gutted and disappointed with myself. Back in November 2020 I had a very mild heart attack and a stent fitted, when I say mild I mean it was mild in form of symptoms and impact in the function of my heart. It was obviously still serious as it was a heart attack and I was

Heart Meds...Stomach problems...anyone else?

4 instead of 3
I was told when I was last in hospital that I have 4 arteries in my heart instead of 3… anyone else had this ? Apparently it’s not mega rare but was only on 3rd visit after stent and on seeing about the 10th doctor he mentioned it !! Considering the amount of atherosclerosis in them maybe it’s

heart bypass
just wondering how long people’s heart bypasses have lasted? I had a double bypass twenty one years ago and a stent fitted three years ago, all seems well up to now.

Stuck!- Now Surviving on an All Clear Liquid Diet.
Hey all, I just wanted to post an update on my personal Colon Cancer Stage 4 journey. Things have taken a very strange and not good turn for me. I truly am very Worried and Concerned about the refusal of local Drs. to put a Stent into my Colon -(they all say I desperately Need!), so that I can go on
