Scared!
Over the last year I have been getting palpitations and feeling out of breath more easily than I think I should for my age - I am only 49. In recent months I've noticed a tightness in my chest when I walk for more than 10 minutes walk quick, up hills or up and down stairs too much or too quick running

Blocked Artery
I had two unsuccessful attempt to fit a stent. Is there anyone else out there who is managing on medication with a totally blocked artery and if so how are you managing?

Pelvic lymph node pathology is in.....
My MO called today and told me: "The biopsy/pathology folks at first were confused, they thought for sure is was metastatic PC. But they finally agreed it was either bladder cancer or rectal cancer, which by the way, was probably caused by the 37 doses of radiation after RP." So now its surgery through

Heart Attack
Hi I am 57 year old female who had a serious heart attack 4 weeks ago. I ate a healthy diet and have never smoked and walked 10,000 steps every day and very rarely drank alcohol. Turns out it was hereditary cholesterol that caused it. I could not get a stent as it is the 3 smaller branches of main arteries

LAD
Last year I had 100% obstruction of the lateral anterior descending coronary artery. Nurses pointed out it's known as the widow maker. Treatment was endoscopy to flush the obstruction then placing a stent to keep the vessel open. What led to this was my barfing during the midday run. I'd barf

Steroids and Heart Heajth
I’m 4 weeks post heart attack and stent placement. This took place whilst tapering Prednisolone after being wrongly diagnostic with Polymyalgia. I’m currently experiencing extreme tiredness and weakness and breathlessness, I’m wondering now if part of this weakness could be down to tbe steroid taper

Getting my head around my diagnosis
Supposedly a fit and healthy 40 year old Male who started getting chest pain during exercise about a year ago. Diagnosed with atherosclerosis about a month ago and fitted with a stent 2 weeks ago. It's been a rollercoaster. Scary and unexpected but coming to terms with it slowly now. Stopped smoking,

Problems after MIGS surgery
Hello I had a stent inserted in my eye in early April to reduce the pressures. Unfortunately I am now being told that the eye has healed too quickly and there is no flow from the stent so I need to go in again for repeat surgery. Has anyone been through a similar experience? Rgds
