ERCP - Failed
Anyone had a failed ERCP? The specialist did not manage to put in the stent and will try again later this week. The whole experience is like Mr Bean but that's another story. Summary - relative presented with high bilirubin - had 3/4 blood tests and still high (in a period of 3 weeks) - ERCP scheduled

left ventricular systolic dysfunction
Had chest tightness on exertion, breathless. I had an angiogram with possibility of stent as a CT showed LAD was getting blocked. Turns out CTwas inaccurate and LAD is fine, mild furring. I have been referred for an echo, report shows LvSD. Left ventricular systolic dysfunction, echo to verify. Anyone

Third recurrence, very worried.
I've just started Caelyx ,after my CA125 went up , always a good predictor for me. CT showed a 3cm tumour pressing on my ureter so I needed a stent to release pressure on my kidney. I had ablation on a liver tumour in August this year in the hope that I might get a break!. A CT in Sept showed me to be

Not sure what to do
I had a Heart attack on the 22/11/23 & got home on the 24/11/23. I had 1 stent fitted & my heart got a lot of damage. I have had amazing medical support with a common theme of rest completely for a week, then driving & work can be introduced. At this moment in time that seems a long way away. If anyone

61 and fit, healthy, within BMI but still had a heart attack. Clot removed and stent fitted (in 30 minutes - incredible work !). As I now sit at home I have to ask about driving. The DVLA website; https://www.gov.uk/heart-attacks-and-driving , simply says talk to your doctor and wait four weeks

Post stent weakness
So I had my stent for angina last July. It did not make much difference and I have been put onto Ranexa along with aspirin, clopidogrel, atorvastatin, bisoprolol, amlopidine, lansoprazole and finasteride. The Ranexa seems to have done the trick and the main angina symptom, burning chest sensation when
