Yes I will have the vaccination
Re Vaccination If I had seen the video of a heart bypass before my op I honestly doubt if I could have got through . I therefore preferred to put my head in the sand and let them get on with it. It will be the same with this vaccination. I would rather that than dying slowly of something I knew I could

Painfull Mouth
Since I still have the pain I ordered liquid iron and B12 to see if I'm not absorbing it ( I had
gastric
bypass
in 2009 ) I also keep getting swollen glands under my jaw ( my Dr said no fever not to worry ) . Does anyone get this mouth pain it's terrible

Trans Apical TAVI op done and dusted at last!
Just thought I'd let everyone know that I've been out of hospital for a week now, after waiting 13 months and two cancellations for an urgent aortic valve replacement. Stiches due out tomorrow. I'm especially grateful to Tessie28 who warned me that even though the op is termed 'key hole' it is still

Covid for Christmas
Hi All, Posted two days ago about really feeling the cold post CABG (my op 10 months ago) and it making my chest ache and hurt. Well, it may also be hurting due to having just tested +ve for Covid. Seems Santa put me on the naughty list! Not felt too bad, just generally crummy the last few days but

Late Happy Christmas
I was busy enjoying Christmas Day, an event I was told in June 2020 I would not witness unless I had an urgently needed op. Well, i had that op, a CABG (3 grafts) and a Davids Procedure and i made it! So Happy Christmas (albeit late) and all the best for 2021. For those in need of that op - there are

Wishing you all a Happy and Safe Christmas
A huge thank you to everyone who supported me in my partners journey through his wiggly veins, angina, numerous tests, failed stents and ultimately his CABG and AFib episodes this year. You are all superstars. Unfortunately his recovery has been longer and much harder then we’d planned for - but he

Feeling really worried

Scapular dyskinesis post bypass
Hi, After having my heart bypass in Feb and having back and shoulder pain since it was diagnosed today as Scapular dyskinesis. Apparently it's quite common after chest surgery and I have been prescribed physio and acupuncture. Has anyone here had this issue and how long did it take to resolve? I find

Fear of something terrible happening
Hi I have a congenital heart defect that was detected 2 years ago which mean my right artery is in the wrong place, running between the pumping chambers which sometimes cause angina type symptoms I’m under cardiologist and on waiting list for CABG hopefully by end of feb, there isn’t really any data

Just not right!
My journey started April 2016 being diagnosed with coronary heart disease, went through CABG 4 weeks later. After recovery I just never felt as good as I had hoped and sure enough symptoms returned and June 2020 I had stents fitted. Still don’t feel anywhere near how I hoped to after these procedures

Well, that escalated quickly...
Hey everyone. I joined here a few weeks ago having been diagnosed with angina. I have obviously had cardiac problems building up over the years but I've been asymptomatic (as far as I am aware). Following a CT scan and an angiogram (both of which were great, the medics and staff all brilliant) I need

Barts Hospital Bypass Surgery
Hi everyone, I am new on here. I am posting on behalf of my mum who recently had an angiogram and found out that her arteries are narrowing. Her consultant advised her the best option for her is bypass surgery. She is currently waiting on a date for her operation. The surgery will be done at Barts hospital

Information on Myocardial Scan MRIs and Angiograms for Fluff
Hi Fluff Now this maybe irrelevant to yourself but I have just added it to give you some idea of what an Angiogram and a Perfusion Scan can show. My Cardiologist wrote " I have reviewed his coronary and graft angiograms this reveals that the LIMA to the LAD and the Vein graft to the OM branch
