Hi this is my first post but I’ve been reading other peoples posts daily since I had a heart attack and stent fitted a month ago. The last couple of days I’ve started getting short, sharp stabbing pains in my chest where the stent is. It’s localized and Dr Google says this can be normal for some, post

A couple of personal anniversarys one biggish and one huge.
Twelve months ago I was moved from Shrewsbury cardiac ward to Wolverhampton so that I could be given a angiogram, so I smoked my last cigarette exactly 365 days ago to the minute, I stubbed it out and got into the ambulance at 09.00, and I was not allowed outside of new cross for another eight days.

Angiogram and possible second Stent and Stress test coming up
Firstly thanks to those who replied to my first post about my nuasea it is improving and on a good day I have no symptoms. Firstly when I had my HA on the 12th July they fitted one stent but noticed the left side was showing some narrowing and I think they put a balloon to widen it with a possible stent
