Coronary artery restenosis problems
I am 78, male and have multiple health problems including asthma, COPD, diabetes, Barrett’s oesophagus, and osteoporosis. The most life threatening condition, however, is rapid resentosis in coronary artery stents. This first stents were inserted in November 2020, and restenosis started in December

GTN? What to expect.
I’ve been getting a chest pain since 1998, when I was blue-lighted to hospital, spent 5 days there having tests and then sent home after an angiogram gave me the all clear. I’ve described the pain to doctors who say it’s just like a heart attack and if it ever lasts for longer than usual I should call

Fear of GTN spray
Hello I recently posted here about difficulties with Bisoprolol and got some good advice and feedback so thank you for that. I need a bit more help please. I have been given GTN spray but I'm frightened to use it.i know that's daft but a few year ago I was given it and my heart rate went wild

Should I see a councillor
Hi all I’m 3 weeks post quadruple bypass which came out of the blue and was a total shock. Then last Tuesday it looks like I had a post surgery HT. The mental side kicked in from almost the start which is something I have never suffer with, I thought I’d be over it now but I’m still having tearful times
