Cataract Op and blood thinners
I have severe arrhythmia and have been taking warfarin for 5 years also clopidogrel since December, when I had a stent fitted. I am due to have a cataract removed in May and wonder if it will be necessary to adjust my medication ?

Birthday Cake
Silly I know... seeking reassurance. Since my NSTEMI (and stent fitting) in December I have eaten ultra healthily and have lost 1.5 stone without even trying. I take 30 minute brisk walks daily and am feeling much much better. My cholesterol has dropped from 4.3 to 1.1. Yesterday I ate two pieces

Update on me/angiogram/contrast
A while back I wrote about how I had a blockage in my legs and would have to have an angiogram/plasty with contrast. My vascular doctor and nephrologist worked together and came up with they would hydrate me 4 hours before the procedure and 2 hours after, also the vascular would only use as much contrast

Inflamed liver
Hi All, I haven't posted for a while, so I will try to explain how I feel generally. Had HA back in September & had a stent fitted. Most of the time I feel ok but every now & again I feel pretty awful, like I'm getting over Flu or a virus. My main symptons are tenderness in lower ribs & stomach ache

Dad back in cardio ward
Don't think it's even been 4 weeks since his NSTEMI and stent and he was back in the cardio ward with chest pains and breathlessness. I was there when the cardiologist came in and based on my dad's symptoms ( shooting pains, breathlessness, happens mainly at night, when lying down) I asked the cardiologist

vegan burger
hi there, I had a stent put in just under a month ago and I have been eating really well. I am going out tonight for a vegan beyond burger and am freaking out that it’s not healthy enough. Do you think I’ll be alright? Is one burger alright? Many thanks Karin

Still pain
Hello, My husband had a stent and double bypass following a heart attack 8 months ago. He's doing incredibly well with rehab and getting fit again. He's still getting pain around his pecks and tightness across his chest when exercising. This goes when he relaxes, so short-lived . I was wondering if

Question for those who are stented
Hello I'm sure this has been asked several times but I've had a look and cant find an answer on here. In January 2023 I was stented due to a blocked LAD artery. My other arteries were healthy and fine and the blockage was believed to be caused from a clot due to Antiphospholipid syndrome. My question
