Apologies in advance for this ramble on something which is probably not a very comfortable topic on this forum but it's something I have been wondering about for some time and I just thought I'd ask you guys for any thoughts you may have. In August 2022 I had an angiogram which didn't go well and resulted

Dapagliflozin side effects
I had a heart attack and stent fitted over Christmas 2022 and have been on a cocktail of drugs since then but feel in good health. I went for a follow up angioplasty a couple of months ago and it was found that the heart attack had caused permanent damage to my heart (apparently now only 30% efficient

Chest wall pain
I am 6 months post NSTEMI and one stent. Generally functioning and walking lots but have near constant chest discomfort, not sure I would call it pain as such. It is nothing to do with exertion. In fact it tends to go away if I walk or run. Also goes away after a bath or if very relaxed. I am feeling

Mystified and baffled.
New to this thought my breathlessness was to do with my heart after having a stent fitted 2yrs ago or even the meds in on.I had lung function tests in July results are now back as I can't get to see my g.p.yet does anyone know what these results mean. Hospital advise inhalers and rehab. Obstructive lung

Hey everyone I've had a bit of a social media break. I hope you are all okay Yesterday (30/09) marked a year since my heart attack. I can't believe it's been a year. Since then I've had a Cardiac Arrest and a stent fitted plus a case of pneumonia and I've started running again and I'm back at work (

Hello all, About 18 months ago I had a stent fitted - didn’t have a heart attack - but every so often I have chest discomfort, like now. I vape quite a lot (ex-smoker). I’m pretty sure that my current bout of discomfort isn’t heart related but my mind is going bonkers and now I don’t know whether I

Tumor Lysis Syndrome
As a result of developing tumor lysis syndrome 2021 while in the hospital (receiving Ven,) my kidneys were affected. This week I will have a kidney stent removed and possibly replaced. Has anyone had a similar experience? The kidney stents will be done in a hospital.
