Thrill rides
Hi, So just before I was diagnosed with unstable angina I was supposed to be going to Disney with my family. I had a cardiac stent inserted and am on the usual medication. Trying to understand if I rebooked whether I could go on the 'big rides' or whether I'd be stuck holding the bags whilst the kids

Can you feel your heart post CABG
Hi all I’ve been for a stress test today on the treadmill and the same happened as it did the other day when I tried to go for my first hill walk on the local hills by us. I started off fine but as the gradient increased my heart rate obviously increased but the rate wasn’t massive around 110 the problem

Lifestyle changes after a Stemi
I had a heart attack a few weeks ago - and a nice, shiny new stent fitted that saved my life. I only spent a couple of days in hospital, thankfully. I couldn't sleep at all in the hospital - and the food was, ehh, not to my taste, to put it politely. I so want to get better. I want to live more than

Stents and HCC
My husband has ascites and oedema which the scan shows to be caused by the original tumour blocking the portal vein. I wonder if anyone has had PVT and was it treated by putting in a stent as the treatment recommended by our oncologist is firstly diruretics and then an infusion of iron? The stent option

Post angioplasty severe pain in side
Hi everyone. So I had my second angioplasty on Monday, the procedure went well from the cardiologists point of view and I have had another stent fitted right next to my first one - they are overlapping. From my point of view however, when he went in my groin it really hurt - I've not had that before

Can medication be reduced after a certain time with no problems?
In 2012 I had a heart attack which resulted in the insertion of a stent, fortunately prompt treatment meant there was no major damage to my heart, although I started getting AF attacks in 2016. In 2017 I started taking 100mg of Flecainide and this was successful in stopping my AF attacks. In 2020 I

Reading everyone's posts this week about their experiences with the NHS this year I think I have been very lucky. Having eventually been diagnosed with angina after 2 trips to our local hospital's A&E I was referred to Basildon cardiothoratic Centre and they have been fantastic. As you are probably
