WFPB or LCHF - which is better for your health and halting the progression of atherosclerosis?
WFPB or LCHF - which is better for your health and halting the progression of atherosclerosis? Four years ago I had a heart bypass. I researched and discovered Ornish and Esselstyn who recommend a whole food plant based WFPB diet to halt or reverse plaques on your arteries. I adopted this diet and have

The dark has me quit unsettled at times after my CABG surgery.
I’ve notice every 5 night or so... I’m completely sleepless!!! It’s because of the reaction I’m having to the darkness. After my surgery I noticed that I didn’t like the dark anymore... I narrowed it down to some reasons that started to make sense.. 1. My subconscious is traumatized and associates the

After 3x CABG, does anyone else’ Mind feel tired but your body just won’t “let go” and let you fall asleep?
Seems like after my surgery I’m having night time anxiety, hyper vigilant for no reason, I understand my body has gone through hell, but I feel better so why does my mind send me negative feelings?

Cabg x 3
I am 2 weeks post op and have this annoying irritating cough. Not a productive cough more a tickle cough. Is this normal? Went to the GP who tested my chest and back which were clear - thought it might be because I have a hiatus hernia and gave me some gaviscon but does not seem to have made any difference

Hi everyone, I am new to HealthUnlocked. I was diagnosed with heart disease in the 1990s, when I was in my 30s. Up to that point I was physically very fit. I caught a virus one Christmas and it all went rapidly downhill from there. I had quadruple bypass surgery in 1997, aged 41. I was told at the time

Itching
I am a 67 year old male who was diagnosed with PD eight years ago. I also have heart disease and had a quadruple heart bypass in 2003. So I take about 22 pills a day to keep me functioning. About two months ago I developed an itching sensation in my lower abdomen. It has persisted for these past two

Bisoprolol
Just looking for others experience. Last year my dad (80) was taken into hospital and had to have a triple heart bypass, ablation and defibrillator. He was then put on bisoprolol. Since then he has no energy. Can only walk a few steps, his legs give way. He stopped taking them and his cardiologist advised

I am 7 days post op for a cabg. How long does it take for the redness to disappear from your harvested vein sites. How long must you wear the compression socks for?

7 week update post CABG x 3
Hi everyone I thought I would hang fire before I posted an update as nothing really much has happened since my last post. Well today I visited James Cook and met with a Cardiologist not my Surgeon, which was a little disappointing as I really wanted to shake his hand and give him my thank you card, but

Total Coronary Occlusion
I went to my GP with chest pain that I had been suffering from for a few months. The pain was on the right side of my chest and apart from one incident where it REALLY hurt, mostly it started in both sides of my jaw, then spread to both armpits and finally felt like I had just smoked too much.
