Anti-coagulation
During a recent visit to my Cardiologist I asked about my cardiac history as I have always been confused and I never fully understood all that happened. It would seem back in Apr 2013 that I had 2 stents (right coronary artery and left anterior descending artery) when I was diagnosed with unstable angina

Local (right) chest pain when i press on it
Hi all, I am feeling local (bruise like) chest pain on my right side for the last 3 days. Could this be angina or something related to the heart. It feels like the top part of my rib cage. It hurts when I press on it. Should I be concerned? I had a stent fitted back on 11.1.19 its been all good. I have

Should my medication stop?
Hi everyone, I had a heart attack a year ago when I was 43 and had a stent fitted. I'm certain that I was told I would come off most of my medication after a year but my GP thinks I'll only come off one of them. The heart-related drugs I currently take are - atorvastatin, bisoprolol, ramipril, aspirin

Atherectomy
I am scheduled for a Atherectomy in my femoral artery. Doctor said it was in my groin area and a stent would not be good due to bending of leg. I was hoping someone who has had this procedure could shed some light on how they found this type procedure. Any comments positive or negative are welcomed.

Jacuzzi use with stents?
Hi, can anyone tell me if it’s safe to use a jacuzzi with stents? I seem to recall reading somewhere that the bubbles and heat are not good for people with heart conditions. I had a heart attack two years ago resulting in one stent and the usual meds package and had a further two stents six months ago

Ubiquinol thoughts please?
After having a stent inserted 23/7/18 my cardiologist said that Ubiquinol was a great supplement for heart health and I have been taking it ever since. I started out on 300mg (one a day) but went down to 100mg when I read that it can reduce effectiveness of aspirin (i.e. blood thinning). I asked my GP
