breathlessness
I am feeling very breathless today but with no pain in my chest just a weird fluttering feeling.I’ve got angina and I’m waiting on a stent for a 100 per cent blocked artery. Has anybody had theses symptoms? I get breathless but it just seem I still am even when I rest.

Flying after stent
Can I ask how soon people flew after they had a stent fitted. Did you experience any side effects during the flight?

Hi everyone. I had a heart attack on 3rd Aug 2023 and was rushed to the Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital where the great staff there managed to save my life. I have had a stent fitted and hoping to go home on 8th Aug. All seems to have gone well with just some soreness. The hospital and everyone involved

left sided chest pain for over 2 years after stent
I had one sent in June 2021. I have had left sided chest pain since than. Any one else in the same situation. Pain seems to be constant, breathing ok. Any solutions ? Stress echo normal, holter monitor normal.

How long until stent improves angina symptoms?
I got a stent on a LAD blockage just over 2 weeks ago and had high hopes that my angina symptoms would disappear. However this has not been the case so far. I feel pretty much the same as before, getting a burning chest sensation when walking and felling breathless occasionally at rest. Is it possible

Painful collar bone
Hello everyone and I hope you are all feeling OK.Question: I had a heart attack last month and had a stent fitted. Towards the end of last week I developed mild pain in my right collar bone. It is still there. I've tried researching it - to no avail. Has anyone else experienced this?

Teeth Problems (who would have thought!)
Hi, I had a heart attack a year ago and had a stent fitted and then another fitted 6 months later and am really getting on well. However I have noticed that since starting taking the drugs my teeth have stained a good few shades darker and have broken 2 teeth in half just eating food. Has anyone else

I’m perplexed about Pluvicto
After one dose of Pluvicto, Joe’s PSA rose, and Mets are unchanged. His second dose is August 4. I asked his onc what good looks like: how will we know if P is working? When? No good answer……he’ll rescan after 3rd dose….. His QOL is lousy, from what I see, anyway. Spends days moving between

Gastric source of angina symptoms
In my quest to get to the bottom of my angina type symptoms I have recently had a stent implanted in my LAD but the symptoms persist. - Mild burning sensation in chest after a few minutes of walking outdoors. (if I walk indoors I have no such problem - it seems to be temperature related?) If I pause

More on statins
I've actually been tolerating ADT quite well over the past year but beginning in January I started feeling tightness in chest, low endurance, out of breath, heavy fatigue, attributing all to Xtandi...Then in May I fainted after getting up from the couch so the old lady took me to the ER...I had an emergency

Vitamins
Hi all, I used to take a multivitamin tablet daily, until my heart stent age 44 two years ago. My Cardiologist asked me to stop taking them as there were certain vitamins that became not good to take e.g. ones on there linked to clotting. I want to start taking vitamins again. My diet is as good

Stent not relieving angina symptoms - so far
Last year I began to get mild burning in my chest and back when walking. So angina was suspected. I was put onto aspirin, statin, bisoprolol and ranolazine and they seemed to greatly reduce the problem. I had a heart scan which detected a significant blockage in my LAD. So
last week
I got a stent

Pmr and heart attack
Hi thereI'm writing for my husband. He had pmr for about 18 months diagnosed after a bout of covid. He did really well with the steroids, they worked to manage the symptoms and he took his last dose in February. Previously he was a fit, healthy and strong person. Pmr definitely took some of his muscle

had to call a ambulance
hi everyone, I felt very unwell on Saturday with new chest pain in my left hand side of my chest and found it difficult to breathe. I usually get it in the middle of my chest. My partner called an ambulance and I went into hospital. After ECG and blood tests they didn’t think it was a heart attack.

Hypertension and blood pressure
Hello I have been struggling lately having what I call ‘funny turns’ they are totally random and happen at different times, some weeks none, other weeks 3 or 4 times. My heart starts beating fast, chest pounding and go all hot and dizzy, thinking I am going to collapse if it doesn’t pass. I have bought
