Unsteady on feet and getting pressure headaches-do you think it is Bisoprolol?
HI, I had a stent fitted the beginning of December and was put on Ramipril, Bisoprolol, Isosorbide Mononitrate, Atorvastatin, Clopidogrel & Aspirin (and Lansoprazole for reflux). In the last 3 weeks or so I have started to feel unsteady on my feet. This tends to go away if I walk for a few minutes,

Massive setback…😡😢😡😢😡😢
Just got word from the transplant team that they now consider me too high a risk for a double lung transplant. As some of you may remember the assessment work up flagged up a calcification build up in a heart vessel ( LAD) which needed sorting. I subsequently went to the Harefield for angioplasty and

BLOOD Pressure concern
My BP has been very low 99/61 pulse 51, following da 116/62 pulse 49. I am taking Rosuvastatin 40mg. I take this at 5 pm. Prior to my heart attack I never had any issue with BP as I was always on the lower side. I have read that it may be to high a dose, and also that taking this medication with food

Atherectomy
Two months ago I posted about the decision to have a bypass when suffering from HF. I had major blockages in all three arteries which could not be stented normally. The cardiologists made the decision for me on the basis that a CABG was too risky for me.. They suggested an Atherectomy on the main artery

I am still having difficulties with my food
Well it's been about 5 months since my 3x and stent & I am hoping to get back to work next month. I still have the painful shoulders and going for an X-ray next week- as these steroid injections didn't really help - otherwise I feel great, out walking everyday and enjoying my new life and appreciating

Stent info
Stents. I read a lot about people needing stents after an HA.. I would love to know why i didn't. The doc said that my heart muscle was not damaged. I think i was a bit numb or shocked after the event and didn't ask any questions. It has left me with angina. Sorry for the ignorance re stents

Hi all, so some of you may know that age 44 I had an angiogram after narrowing of my arteries were detected on a CT Angiogram. Was found to have a 90% blockage in my LAD artery so had one stent fitted. Was told that there is furring in other arteries but cardiologist didn’t stent any other and didn’t
