As I write this my heart feels heavy accompanied by a dull ache and a small 'buzz' every so often. If it follows its normal progression it will start to feel squeezed during the next 24 hours & as though it has over done it at the gym and now feeling sore. This combination has seen me in A&E over 5

confused
I have CMVA 2 years now- never needed GTN. I was on holiday in July , ordering lunch at a beach restaurant feeling fine, and suddenly just felt like I was about to leave this world…. At hospital got checked out and told all was ok and treated for fainting episode. When I read through my blood results

Does anybody here take Isosorbide Mononitrate 60 mg twice a day ?
Had a 3 X CABG 7 years ago, I’m now a 64 years old, male. Everything since then has been fine, until recently, as I've now started to get angina attacks in the early mornings whilst asleep, and if I exert myself (like walking to the shops). I had to go to A&E when using my GTN spray did not work on

Unexplained symptoms after Heart attack
I had a heart attack in Aug 2020. Was in Cath. lab within 1 hour where they did an angioplasty and found Right Coronary Artery completely occluded. After 2 attempts they mostly cleared the clots, and put me on Rivaroxaban, clopidogrel, aspirin, bisoprolol. They could not put a stent in for technical

Trying to make sense
Short background, edited to clarify - 2 months ago exactly I ended up in A&E with chest pains... blood tests showed elevated troponin levels so was treated for a heart attack (although they were fairly certain this wasn'tthe cause of my symptoms) and monitored for 72 hours. ECGs and echo all clear.

Vasospastic angina - remission?
I was diagnosed in 2018 after 7 years of symptoms. It was always unpredictable, but triggers appeared to be changes in temperature and stress. I was medically retired because of it in 2020 because my employer wouldn't offer the reasonable adjustments I needed (no lone working basically). I realised

CAS / Prinzmetal
In May 2020, I was fitted with a pacemaker and two stents and although they were successful, I have been loosely diagnosed with CAS / Prinzmetal angina - coronary artery spasms. I call it a nocturnal angina - it wakes me up at night and I use GTN medication. Is anyone on here who has been diagnosed

stents for the elderly
Dad had a heart attack back in January. He's 88 yrs old. While in hospital he was offered to take part in a trial and have stents placed. He hadn't much time to think about it but decided not to have it done considering the risks attached. Following a reasonable recovery he's now started suffering tiredness

Nighttime angina
I have mild ischaemic heart disease and had occasional exercise-related attacks of angina which now seem well-controlled on Nicorandil 10mg, half-tablet am and pm. A few months ago, I had surgery on a badly-broken femur, and a number of temporary medications including morphine and codeine. Since then

Heart attack I didn’t know about?
I’ve just come back from seeing my cardiologist who said I’m doing pretty well following my quadruple CABG 6 weeks ago but wants me to do some stress tests because I’ve used my gtn a couple of time since. The big thing is now we had time to chat as my surgery was pushed through really quickly following

Isosorbide Mononitrate… is it the devil?
I started on Isosorbide. Mononitrate 10mg twice a day 3 days ago. The pharmacist advised to take them at 8am and 2 pm which I have been doing. However I feel like a bag of poop, head feels like it’s going to explode and nothing helps it. Urine has gone really dark despite been well hydrated and I feel

LAD Bypassed then Native LAD Stented
Hello just wondering if anyone else has had this procedure. My LAD was bypassed in 2015 and in 2018 was stented through the bypass to increase the blood flow. After some real shortness of breath on exertion and arm pain my Cardiologist carried out an Angiogram to see what was going on. He decided
