Criteria for choosing non-emergency CABG?
My dad is scheduled for an angioplasty next week. His flow test and scans have revealed at least three significant blockages (over 70%) one of which is in his LAD. The doctors are planning to insert stents, but said the cath will give them a better sense of the blockages and if CABG is the better option

EP Study didn’t trigger arrhythmia
Hi Everyone, So a quick back story. I am 30 years old. In October 2018 I was diagnosed with narrow complex tachycardia and Atrial Fibrillation from a wearing a monitor. A week later I went for an EP study however they couldn’t induce the arrhythmia:-/ they went ahead with cryoblation anyways but could

New here - experiencing quadrigeminy, trigeminy and bigeminy
Hi, 49 year old woman here with a history of PVC's my entire adult life. They used to be very intermittent, I'd get an episode or 2 a day lasting a few minutes to an hour for a few months, then nothing for a year, etc. I was told not to worry about it and didn't. Now it's been worsening over 3 years

Calling an ambulance...
Ok, so i'm not in case you are worried, but reading some threads got me thinking... We as humans, and especially when we get older, dont like to "bother" people like GPs/111 and A&E, at what point did you think 'something is wrong here' or did you end up waking up in post op recovery? My (short) story

Diaphragm problems
Hi to everyone, My wife had open heart surgery 1 month ago. She had her mitral value replaced and her tricuspid valve repaired. Now we found out that she is having problems with her diaphragm due to the surgery. Right side of her diaphragm went into her lung. Anyone out there with any experience

recovery from open heart surgery - slow
I had open heart surgery in February but am still feeling tired, nauseous and generally out of sorts on quite a few days of the week. Is this normal?

Feedback
Hi All, After many years having palpitations I have finally been diagnosed with AF. In the last 4 weeks, I went to a&e twice due to severe episodes. I was put on metoprolol 50mg twice a day and it seems to be working. I am having an ablation on Monday week and I would like to get feedback from people

Anxiety chest pain
Does anybody else get chest pains randomly that radiate all over the chest and tend to come and go. Some feel like pressure and some like stabs or deep stabs that go across your chest? I dont feel like i’m having anxiety at the moment. I’m trying to relax and i’m feeling, yet again, what feels like another

Lost and confused
I am sort of new to this so I might be doubling up on my post. I had open heart surgery 2 months ago. Described as a physically brutal procedure by a registrar I am left with symptoms of PTSD. Going to the follow appointment at the hospital had me anxious for days. Always fit and reasonably healthy

Skin conditions, open heart surgery and heart failure.
While I was in hospital (for a month) following my MVR I developed a really itchy rash. Despite treating it with prescribed moisturiser, low dose steroid cream and antibacterial/antifungal cream I still have it 9 weeks later. I saw my Dr today (face to face) and she diagnosed discoid eczma and prescribed

My first AFib episode since diagnosis
Well it’s gone from if to when, I suppose I am now fully fletched member of the club. I woke up predawn on Monday with my heart running ahead of me. Calmly followed my GPs advice and took my usual meds and waited, no dice. Phoned my GP and waited for return call and waited. Was told to take another
