What’s your experiences of stenting
Hi there Iv just joined and hope to be able to gain information and support as I had a heart attack in August and had a stent put in. Iv just found out the consultant has come across my papers while cleaning his office and now have to have another one. I’m not too happy as I’d not been told about this

Newly diagnosed and super confused!
Hi everyone! New member here joined on behalf of my partner. We're in South Wales, UK.

Post Stent: Fatigue aches and insomnia
Hi, I had a stent fitted a month ago after collapsing during a stress test in hospital. After the stent was fitted I was sent home with a leaflet and my medication. The nurses were superb, however, I wasn't really 'with it' when discharged so didn't ask many questions. For the first week I felt much
