Meds problem update
Hi all, I thought I'd offer an update to my earlier post. All advice has been appreciated. To recap, 2 weeks after a stent insertion I stopped my beta blocker, ace inhibitor and statin due to increasing and crippling nerve pain. I remained on aspirin and clopidogrel. At first I was advised not to do

Meds problems after heart attack
Hi all, I'm new here so bear with me. I had a heart attack 4 weeks ago and had a stent fitted. Prior to this I wasn't on any meds, but was immediately placed on 6 different meds. I have a history of reacting badly to most meds. Typical symptoms are nerve pain in hands and feet, swollen abdomen, sensation

Heart Palpitations
Hi Everyone, I’m 32 years and considered myself relatively fit and healthy before my unexpected heart attack 3 weeks ago. For the first 2 weeks after my heart attack and having a stent fitted I tended to just find myself feeling tired all the time which I guess is perfectly natural, it’s now week

What exercise permitted after stent. Covid-19’Lockdown severely limits outdoor exercise
Had a stent fitted just before Covid19 lockdown. Went well but no follow up except one phone call. Can I get on exercise bike to do some light pedalling? Have done some short walks but supposed to be at home since 73 years old. Thanks

Know About Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is one of the most commonly performed open heart surgeries. Generally patients with severe coronary heart disease undergo this type of surgery.

Palpitations two years after bypass op
Hello all. I had a double bypass and a stent fitted two years ago. I occasionally feel mild palpitations and shortness of breath which go away after a few hours. Has anyone else experienced similar conditions and shouldI be worried? Thanks.

Getting out of breath
Hi all, I had a heart attack on the 6 Feb this year, I was rushed into hospital and had a Stent fitted immediately. Following this procedure I felt great, I’m on lots of drugs as you would imagine. However over the past week I have been getting out of breath when doing housework and walking. Obviously
