Hi everyone, I'll try to keep this one short today and not write a doctoral dissertation of emotions. That's how I feel and at least with my "community fam" - it's a no judgement zone. I'm feeling fair since the Kidney Stone/Lithotripsy Stent Procedure surgery. That's a mouth full (right) - some days

Travel insurance to cover Endometriosis when waiting for surgery
Hi all, I was just wondering if anyone could recommend a travel insurance provider that would cover me for Endometriosis and Hydronephrosis (due to Endometriosis). I am struggling to find anyone to insure me because I am on a waiting list for a laproscopy and i need my kidney stent changing in June.

BP with COPD and Thyroid
I’ve been on 75 aspirin; bisoprolol 6.25mg daily; Ranolazine 375mg twice daily; and PRALUENT injections from when I had a stent fitted and my bp 145/78 pulse 58 which was great but my bp has gradually increased to 157/85 pulse 67 , I was on Allopurinol before stent was filled but I kept swelling up!

A random post just wondered how others feel. I had my heart attack 9 weeks ago a stemi totally blocked artery RCA, had warning signs for a couple of years sometimes out of breath and felt like bad indigestion ignored them (as you tend to do!!) called it my 'funny turn' it would pass after 5-10 minutes

exercises for post bypass surgery
my uncle is doing brill since his bypass surgery, 6 weeks on he’s walking up the stairs and trying to exercise using a pedal bike. He has seen the cardiac nurse but exercise booklet think has been delayed due to postal strike. Any tips would be helpful? Also the district nurse discussed his stomach issues

Recent echo after A/F diagnosis
Had a 3X CABG 19 years ago ( I'm 69 now) and just 3 months back had a bout of A/F which was treated with the usual Bisoprolol and Warfarin (bad reaction to Apixaban so that was a no go). Had the echo 3 weeks ago and was given the results yesterday - valves working well but Ejection fraction down to 40

heart failure…. How to help
Hi all, my husband has been diagnosed with heart failure in the past few days. He is currently in hospital following a high AF attack. He is also a diabetic - they are tinkering with his meds currently- but no mention of surgery. He had a stent fitted five years ago. I’m so frightened that I am going

Listen to your body.
Hi all, just a reminder to have any symptoms checked out. I had a left side stent fitted in January 2019 and went through the usual worries and stresses with this unexpected procedure. Lost weight and kept up my healthy walking habits along with upper body exercises. All went great until 3 months ago
