Am I over thinking?
It has been many years since my SAH ruptured suddenly & I had emergency coiling, followed by a stent fitted a year later. Although it was traumatic at the time, for both myself & my family, I have been extremely lucky as I survived the 50/50 prognosis & had no physical limitations. It did take a couple

Very dry skin
Had HA and stent fitted last December. On aspirin, clopidogrel, bisoprolol, ramipril, atovorstatin, pantoprazole. Has anyone experienced very dry skin all over, especially on legs? I am using aqueous cream twice a day but skin keeps flaking off. Would one of these tablets cause this? Lily

HRT after heart attack
I came off HRT at the signs of my heart attack (as the leaflet said to stop with chest pains) and was since told by cardiology team that HRT wasn't the cause, I was just one of the unlucky ones at 49 years old. It has been 8 months since my mild heart attack with one stent fitted and I'm doing OK. I

Scared about being prescribed Clarithomycin for H Pylori
Hi, scared about the situation I am in and would appreciate people's thoughts. I had a stent fitted last December and have had pains in my chest which seem to be stomach related (after a lot of visits to A & E and a gastrocsopy). I had a gastroscopy in February which found I had erosive gastritis.

Got 1x stent fitted and started on 5 different medications inc Bisoprolol 2.5mg. Eventually got nurse to check bloods today(should have been done after

Lung transplant second opinion update.
Saw the very nice team at the Royal Papworth following the Harefields decision to delist me. Where do i begin? First of all what a place, futuristic, buzzing with energy and you just knew you were in a different league. They haven’t said yes but more importantly not a no either. Bottom line is they

bad news
I had osteoarthritis of the right hip in 2014 and had a full hip replacement with great success. some time after that i began to get back and groin pain and was referred for an MRI. The result was herniated discs and sciatica. I have just recently had another MRI and the result is mild wear and tear,

Gums and bleeding
Hi. I had a heart attack 5 weeks ago. All fixed now, stent fitted and drugs given. However, my mouth suddenly fills with blood at least 4 times a day? My gums are as white as a sheet. Has anyone else had this experience or know why? I have a dental appointment in a few weeks so I'm hoping for some answers

100% blocked artery
Hi My husband had a heart attack 2 weeks ago and was unable to have a stent put in the artery that was blocked. He is having an MRI scan next week and the cardiologist will see him the week after. He mentioned, in a review letter, that they may perform a staged PCI but that this procedure would be of

Waiting Times
I have been told today that I need a stent fitted and I wondered usually how long it will be approx until it is done. My cardiology department are playing catch up at present so I suspect it could be a while!

poisoned by statins
I have now come to the conclusion that instead of getting the correct treatment for my heart problem I have been given a higher dosage of statins that is causing me more harm. I believe that my diagnosis should be treated with a stent or a bypass. I have three siblings , two have had heart attacks and

Stress Test/myocardial perfusion scan Results
Good afternoon, I had my tests carried out in Feb and despite being told I would receive the results in 2 weeks I have only just been sent them.

Happy 1st birthday to my stent😊
This time last year i was not a well pup. Stemi in the lad and rushed to hospital with the lights flashing. Didnt know what was happening until they had inserted a stent and cleared the 100%blockage. Surgeon then says "you had a heart attack but we've inserted a stent and fixed the plumbing". At the
