Angina post CABG
So, following a CABG 3.5 years ago to resolve a blocked Circumflex, I still seemed to have angina afterwards. I was recently directed back to the Chest Clinic at the local hospital as I felt like my angina had become more frequent. I saw a Cardiologist who, having looked at my history and the resting

Lesley aka Sand Dancer đđ»
Hi Everyone, I realise that the passing of Lesley has been posted by her friend in Newcastle. Lesley and I became great friends and I will miss her Hugely more than I can say here. I kept touch with her during this illness, and her lovely husband Peter & Laura kept me up to speed with everything. Dan

And we have a date...
We have a date for my fiancĂ©âs bypass surgery, he has to be at hospital next Sunday for surgery on the 27th đł The nhs are doing it privately as he became âurgentâ and this way was much quicker. Glad to have a date but terrified and nothing in place! FiancĂ© has gone to bits and for some reason is obsessing

Coronary artery bypass graft.

aged 76 I suffered a triple heart bypass aged 74. Since I packed up playing rugby in 1983 aged 40 I have suffered chest pains despite playing badminton and tennis to a later age. I learnt long ago that there is a nerve traveling from your anal area to your chest and irritable bowels can cause chest pains

Slight occasional clicking in sternum
Hello, I am a 59 year old male the had heart bypass surgery 4 weeks ago. I didn't have a heart attack, but found 4 blockages after a stress test. I am doing pretty good, but I have noticed a few times a very mild click in my chest, but only when I cough. I have read on this site that this is common.

Light-Headed When Walking
Hi all, I had my first Cardiac Arrest in 2011 followed by a triple heart bypass op. From then until a few weeks ago, all was well. I did long-distance walking (Camino de Santiago etc) without any issues; I also used a treadmill 2 or three times a week to offset my sedentary job. However, on 12th December

Hello, I'm new here...
Hi there, I'm a 59 year old who has had a little chest replumbing (2x CABG and a titanium aortic valve). In November I had my annual cardiac review and my consultant was less than impressed by my 100 kg weight even though I walk about 6 km a day. We agreed that I should lose some weight and have a crack

Experience of bypass success in treating diffuse extensive 3 vessel disease
I have been diagnosed with diffuse extensive 3 vessel disease and scheduled for bypass surgery in ten days time. Would like to hear of how successful others in a similar position found the surgery to be. Thanks.

Not such a good end to the day fiancé CABG yesterday
FiancĂ© was doing so well after his CABG yesterday. He ate his breakfast by himself, was assisted out of bed and sat in chair and was looking pretty good. Then this afternoon his heart went into atrial fibrillation with no warning and theyâve really struggled to correct it. Now itâs swinging between

Low eGFR?
My father who had a quadruple heart bypass 7 years ago, low blood pressure and on a range of medication for heart disease had his usual bloods checked ( mainly in relation to kidney function and any effects from medication). I spotted his eGFR was low at 78 ( range 90 -120). I want him to speak to his

Costochondritis: have many of you been diagnosed with this a year or two after CABG?
Just been given diagnosis of this - Costochondritis - after an ECG and review by good Doctor. I had some increase in general chest pain for 2-3 weeks, and various other aches and pains. My concern was the pain was a sign of circulation issues but have been reassured this is non Cardiac but just a consequence

Bad reaction to Atorvastatin
I had triple heart bypass last June. I was put on the usual medication including 80mg atorvastatin. After about 3 months it was discovered that my liver counts were through the roof. I was taken off statins. Very worrying time. After more than 2 months the counts had fallen back to within the normal

Lymphaticovenous bypass surgery
My son who is 23 years old, has primary stage 2 lymphedema in his right leg . He had a lymph bypass surgery yesterday. They managed to connect lymph tubes to veins in 3 different places. We were told that the chance of this surgery on a leg was very low. But the leg now looks even more swollen than
