Hi, in week 7 post cabg and rehab physio told me to sleep on back until end week 8 to all sternum to heal properly… so definitely sleep on back for a few more weeks. Yes I prefer my side but doing what is needed for recovery.

Rotablation
Hi all. Well 4 1/2 years after my bypass surgery I found myself with similar angina pains although things went slightly differently this time. At first I think I was in denial about the pain 'was it imagined' 'was it indigestion'? In the end I could ignore it no longer so last Monday (18th) I phoned

Cataract and stent op outcomes
Hi All Has anyone had cataract op and how did it go? I had super vision for 4 days and then apparently the lens moved and now it’s not that great. Because I can read the chart they say I can drive but beyond about 5 metres my vision is blurred so I won’t be driving. I know it’s only 11 days but I am

Platelets dropping while on Zejula (Niraparib)
Hi Lovely Ladies. I went through two rounds of chemo for peritoneal CA. A few bumps along the way with a blocked ureter. A stent was inserted and I ended up in ICU with a kidney infection. (Sepsis). All good now in that regard except that my kidney function has been affected - they don't seem to be

Rosuvastatin verses Atorvastatin
Having had a coronary stent fitted in April I'm prescribed atorvastatin 80mg to clear fatty arteries. Would I be better off with rosuvastatin?

Angioplasty
Due to have angioplasty in 10 days. I have a blocked LAD but my heart has done 2 by passes, to help, but they haven’t quite done the job. Exercise test showed st depression. Cardiologist is going to try and poke a way through, and stent the LAD. Anyone had anything similar.

Vaping
Hi guys, I had a stent fitted at the end of June this year. Does anyone have any advice on vaping? Is it dangerous to carry on? I'm on the lowest strength available.

I was very fit and used to exercise before this lot. I’m now in slow lane at swimming and get breathless walking to quickly or up a small

Newbie.... Just joined and trying to make sense of this new situation in my life!
Had my heart attack back in June, stent fitted, lots of complications. I had previously been fit and healthy (or so I thought), weak as a kitten when I came out of hospital and have slowly got stronger... Three and a bit months later still off work. Been through all the emotions, tears and low points

Medications after having a stent
Hello everyone, just wanted to ask which medications people have been prescribed after having a stent fitted, my dad is due to have one but is struggling to take both asprin and clopidogrel, they both really upset him and he takes lansoprazole which doesn't seem to help, has anyone else had this trouble
