Triple Bypass side effect.
Since having my CABG in march I keep getting this spasm which rocks my body. I can only describe it as like half a hiccup. It makes me make a weird noise and happens about 10 times an hour. Does anyone know what this could be?

Waiting for CABG
I am a 63 year old female waiting for CABG x 2. Have been following posts for a few weeks now but have never been brave enough to introduce myself. I had a heart attack in 2018 followed by one stent. Family history of heart attacks. Attended cardiac rehab and have continued to follow advice to the letter

Well yesterday was 13 weeks post op double cabg, and I was waiting for a follow up phone call from my surgeon at 10.40 am. It cam to 1pm and I had heard nothing so phoned his secretary who was so lovely and extremely helpful, although she did not know why he hadn't phoned as he had not left a message

shoulder and back pain following CABG
I had a triple CABG 8 weeks ago now. I am finding it difficult to get back to moral activity because my shoulders ache and I have a strong ache between my shoulder blades at the top of my back. I kinda expected these aches in the early days because of positioning and trauma during surgery, But was not

Lorazepam experiences for one-off use
