In February I had a cardiac arrest but I am now recovering well after a stent was fitted and a month in hospital after getting pneumonia. My question is has anyone else after having an heart attack got any experiences of having their annual flu jab. I'm wondering am I safe to have this in October? What

Concerned
Good morning all, Back in November, I’d had a stent fitted as I’d had a 90% blockage in my LAD. The CT Angiogram done before the Angiohram detected narrowing in multiple arteries. I was 44yrs of age then. Since I’ve made positive lifestyle changes. I’m left wondering though, how is any of us routinely

stopping bisopromol
Hi All, hope you are keeping well. In the last 18 months I’ve paid privately to see the consultant who put the stent inside of me. It started with paying for an echo cardio gram and also a fitness test because I put it down to the meds I was on, but that general feeling of dog****. Fatigued.

Stopping blood thinners after having a stent
Hi everyone, The Doctor has advised my dad to come off his blood thinners which he was put on after having a stent due to a blockage in his artery, he has said to stop them because his stomach is too delicate to handle the blood thinners and it's causing ulcers, my dad's worry is now that he is off them

Stent procedure Dec 2022
Been experiencing short breath, ie I need the need to take deep breath quite often, the cardiologist suggested an angiogram as all other tests seems ok. I was explained that if in the process they will see a balockge of over and above certain % a stent will be inserted. In short I end up with one stent

Ticagrelor bruising
I am 5 months post HA and stent. Came home very bruised from the angioplasty. That cleared up well but have had all sorts of random bruising since then. They just appear each morning from nowhere, no apparent injury or even a minor knock. Was accepting it but they seem to be getting worse the last few

Insomnia (boo!)
Common problem with the meds, I know. But 6 weeks after my stent was inserted ("cardiac incident") and I can't grab more than four hours uninterrupted. What meds will the doc put me on to get some sleep? I read regular sleeping pills are risky for heart patients. Any Intel? Thanks in advance! 👍
