Ticagrelor 6 or 12 months post HA and stents
Hi Can anyone advise why the prescribing of ticagrelor differs between geographical areas, some direct 6 months and some 12 months post stent and heart attack. Is there any short concise research I could read on the rationale/ outcome for length of prescribing?

Pins and needles
I am 4 weeks post HA and stent. In the last week have been waking up in the night with pins and needles down left side. Was bad last night and took 3 hrs to get back to sleep due to resulting anxiety. Spoke to my cardiac nurse who says it's nothing to do with the drugs. She says none of them have that

Thankfulness
Woke up to another grey morning, but have realised I have a lot to be thankful for. Firstly although I discovered I had a "widowmaker" blockage of the L AD, my other arteries compensated and I didn't have a heart attack. Secondly the team at Basildon who looked after me last year before and during the

Angina symptoms
Hello all, My first post here so be gentle! 😃 In October ‘21 I I had severe LAD disease which led to a myocardial infarction & a subsequent stent & all was good. In the last month I’ve been given a GTN spray only because the GP thought I had one, but I never had. I’ve also had an Echo recently,

Triple Bypass 2 years on.
I sometimes reply to the questions and experiences of others but I don't instigate threads, so this is an exception. Two years ago today, age 64, I was in surgery for triple CABG following a heart attack and one stent in 2019, and a return of some symptoms such as pressure in upper chest and awful jaw

Week 1
I’m a returning C25K runner, progressed really well in 2019 then ill health struck, then Covid, then last year I had to have a stent inserted. So after much procrastination I slipped into my ill fitting running gear, donned my trainers and put on some good music. I have just finished Week 1 and although

Heart Attack Journal #2
I really didn’t think I’d be back here again. After my first MI in August 2019, I really thought that the medication I was on would prevent a repeat of this. However, 3 ½ years on, it’s happened again. Seems that I’m in the small minority (less than 2%) for whom the standard medication doesn’t prevent

Perspiring profusely
Does anybody else suffer with profuse sweating and dull pain in the chest. I started my heart journey in Spain needing stents fitted one year later I was rushed into hospital again with a heart attack where one of my stents in the LAD failed and caused a blood clot. I then moved back to UK as my understanding

TIPPS proceedure, portal hypertension and HE
Is anybody still alive after 8 years of having a liver TIPPS stent fitted more than 8 years ago. I would like to know how you are feeling these days and what I can expect in the near future Thanks Jim

Breathlessness advice
I’m at nearly two years post HA (6th May 21) and one stent 😊. I’ve lost weight, fitter than I’ve been in years and eating habits have improved. I acknowledge there is still room for improvement. In the last month I have noticed that I am becoming more breathless when walking or doing jobs like gardening

Ejection fraction 41% post MI ...
I'm just under 3 weeks post STEMI - with 1 stent to the LAD. Echo' a couple of days post procedure showed EF was only 41% .... (I was a late presentation, so myocardial damage was probably greater than it otherwise might have been)... I was previously extremely fit for my age (60's) - with no risk

TIPS Stent Help
Hi I am looking to find someone who is in the same predicament as me. There must be someone out there? I had a TIPS stent fitted in 2015 for severe portal hypertension and variceal bleeding in oesophagus and stomach. Has the TIPS procedure in Liverpool but as I live in Wales, ever since, there seems

Sensation in kidney area
Hi, I had kidney stones 2 years ago, and had them removed through surgery. I had a stent fitted, which was an uncomfotable experience. The stent was removed. They removed the stones. However, in the mornings I feel a strange senstaion in my lower back area, sometimes it is like a tingling feeling

Angioplasty
So I had my angiogram today. Told doctor I had read up on PCI v medical therapy and the fact there’s no difference in outcome - so I don’t want a stent unless it’s absolutely necessary. Anyway, angiogram showed 90% stenosis of the LAD (proximal). When Dr showed me how much vessel would be cut off if

Lovely day out.
Hope this post I allowed. Had a lovely day at Audley end house and boy am I'm glad of the interventional cardiologist who put in my stent in last year. This time last year I would have been using my spray half a dozen times during the day, especially as it was a bit of a steep climb up to the car

what does Guanfacine do? How does it affect your child after taking it?
My son just turned 12. He has severe ADHD and mild ASD. We just started Neurofeedback and it shows his anxiety is through the roof. It is definitely causing his major malfunctions. I think it’s time we rethink his meds. He has been on Lexapro 20 mg but I don’t think it’s doing its job for him. He
