After CABG how long before blocking could reoccur?
Hi all. I had triple CABG almost 4 months ago and im fine, getting good exercise. I have no problems but feel bit bad for not eating as well as i could all the time. Most of time im good, but not perfect. My question is how quick could arteries clog up again if you dont get your butt in gear? Thanks

Post stent operation recovery
HI everyone. I had 1 stent fitted on 01/09/2022. I am really struggling, both physically and mentally since the operation. Doctor prescribed me statins and prasugel. I am now struggling with extreme fatigue, so I am turning to you for advice. Before I was diagnosed with 1 blocked artery

Heart Failure post CABG, collaterals
CABG is supposed to help us but i see most of us having heart failure post CABG. I knew that collaterals that we develop are like natural bypass and it protects us but in spite, of that I went for CABG and i have heart failure ever since. I regret that I did not take multiple opinions. Wanted to hear

it's been a few stressful weeks, my mum unfortunately passed away just over two weeks from having the operation to mend her broken hip. She was 104 and I think at the end she just gave up, did get pneumonia. Had a few not very bad angina attacks which I think we're stress related as not had any

Back pain after stent
Sorry if this is a bit rambling but it's my first post. I used to get an intense pain horizontally across the middle of the back. It then went to the chest, throat and jaw. I used to get this on and off and put it down to digestion. In May 2021 I was diagnosed with Coronary Artery Disease and had

Stamina and keeping vertical all day !
Hi - I'm 5 months post CABG, I returned to work 4 weeks ago in school- it was difficult mentally the first few days but that's improved.

Another stenosis close to first one!
Hi everyone. I had a stent fitted for a stenosis of my LAD artery 26/10/21. I continued to get chest pain which got much worse in May 2022 where I've since had to use my GTN spray whenever I'm active. I was reassured can't be cardio so must be gastro. I do have gastro issues and had an oesophageal

Clopidogrel and vision
Hi everyone I hope you are managing to stay cool in this heat. I am hoping to come off my Clopidogrel in September, which will be 12 months since CABG. Since I have been taking this my vision has definitely got worse. As a diabetic of 36 years I have to look after my eyes, but they have definitely deteriorated

Facing some tough times…
Dear All, I have seen so many of us on here sharing our stories of seeing our loved one in so much turmoil… I would like to join you tonight. Many years ago, it was here, where I got support while my husband went through transplants and surgeries following it… I was on here as Pear Shaped then.
