My recovery has been perfect- apart from being breathless or exhausted upon relatively small exertion.Today i carried a tv upstairs and was panting like a dog, later on my walk i was breathing heavily on every incline. I have been posting when it would be sensible to start running again, and following

Has anyone had cardiac catheterization or heart surgery with GCA or PMR?
Hi everyone, in my last post I told you I was about to have an echocardiogram where they put a camera down your throat to get better pictures of the heart. That went fine except for very sore throat for about a week. Unfortunately they found multiple problems, all of which have appeared in the last year

shoulder and back pain following CABG
I had a triple CABG 8 weeks ago now. I am finding it difficult to get back to moral activity because my shoulders ache and I have a strong ache between my shoulder blades at the top of my back. I kinda expected these aches in the early days because of positioning and trauma during surgery, But was not

Use of ED ring
However, couple of years ago I was diagnosed with severe coronary
heart
disease and had a double
heart
bypass
. Since then I have had much more issues with ED and found cialias much less effective (so was viagra) which wasnt helped with some marital issues at the same time.

Second Successful Ablation with Dr. Natale
I am now one week past my second ablation with Dr. Natale in Austin, Texas. The biggest miracle of all was that when I went off of Flecainide five days before surgery, nothing happened and I stayed in sinus rhythm. My first ablation was nearly five years ago, and I tried unsuccessfully to go off of Flecainide

"Probable Myocardial infarction of indeterminate age".
I've had afib for about a year and a half and it's reasonably well controlled, it seems, by bisoprolol and aPixaban. Consultant advised to leave it alone and will probably need a pacemaker in the future. He did an ECG on me yesterday and the words at the top of the print out were what I have shown at

Last Thursday I has another heart attack and the angiogram showed that the stents had collapsed and hadn't worked. I was told i needed bypass surgery . I'm.just in total shock and am utterly

Tastebuds
It’s now gone more than five weeks since I had a triple
heart
bypass
and my tastebuds are still messed up. From what I’ve read this happens in a minority of cases and is usually caused by anaesthetic rather than post op medication.

Tramadol versus Buprenorphine Patch.
I had a Laminectomy which failed (Triple
Bypass
and Mitral Valve Repair also) now diagnosed with
Heart
Failure so no “normal” painkillers. Pain Management have advised me to try Tramadol prior to possibly using Buprenorphine patches. Anybody have experience or advice of either. Which is best?

Gabapentin
Hi everyone. Does anyone have experience with gabapentin for anxiety and depression? Some background. My Father passed away in March 2022, which left me devastated. I was then diagnosed with a heart condition requiring a stent. Since then I have really been struggling. I used to be very fit and active

PVCs, PAF and ablation
Hello everybody, I would be very grateful for advice. My problem is that after covid booster Moderna (September) I started feeling lots of ectopics (never had before). Tried deep breathing, flecainide 50 twice a day, metoprolol 25 mg but nothing helped. My cardiologist sent me to numerous tests:

weak left radial pulse after ablation
Hello everyone my latest concern after my ablation 3 weeks ago is I have noticed my usually strong pulse on my left wrist is now very faint, with the one on my right wrist stronger than pre ablation. I saw my GP today who said he agreed but had not come across this before and mentioned something about

Off the AF meds, scared!
Has anybody got a similar experience of coming off the meds so soon, it just seems early days I spoke to my Cardiologist last week, after an ablation in September I was tachycardic and a cardio version was required in December. Sinus rhythm restored and February 7th he took me off both the beta blockers

how do you prepare for bypass!
Hi Just after a little bit of advice on how I can prepare myself for a bypass surgery, I only found out before Xmas after an angiogram they couldn’t fit stent because of where the blockage is in the left internal mammary artery. So I’ve been referred but now my mind is going into overdrive thinking

IVIG after heart surgery and stopping IBRUTIMIB
12 months ago I was on an Ibrutinib clinical trial for my CLL. Ibrutinib worked great for me for years. I found out I needed a triple bypass due to 95% LAD artery blockage. Not good! A stent wasn’t an option in my case due to necessity for blood thinners. Can’t do blood thinners, aspirin and Irbutinib

You sent me a message asking for a paper on hypothyroidism and left ventricular failure. I've found this that might be of use: Br Heart J. 1982 Sep; 48(3): 278–284. doi: 10.1136/hrt.48.3.278 PMCID: : 7104121 Left ventricular function in hypothyroidism. Responses to exercise and beta adrenoceptor
