CABG Lungs?
I am 8 weeks out from triple CABG and my lungs still are not giving me full breaths. When I breathe I can't take a full breath without some discomfort and when I walk up hills I have a hard time taking full breaths because it causes coughing. Can anyone normalize this for me? I understand that being

Isosobride mononitrate
Had cabg x 3 2 years ago. 1 yr later discovered a problem with a 4th artery. Too narrow to stent. Given Ranexa to control angina type episode. Worked for about a year although I’ve been having hearing problems so when I had another episode didn’t want to increase it so meds changed to the isosobride

Sun beds are not safe - Fact
Sunbeds emit the same UV radiation as the sun, but at much greater intensities. Sunbeds are classified as a group 1 carcinogen for a reason. Even one sunbed use can increase your risk of melanoma by 20% and sunbed use before the age of 35 can increase the risk of melanoma by 75%! The message is clear

Circumcised 10 days ago. My secret to overcome circumcision complications
And also there a surgery where they add
skin
graft
from a hairless part of the body and they add it to the shaft of the penis to fix the issue. the vy inverted is the easiest one i think, so for those who dont like to have a tight shaft after circuncision theres an exit door to the problem and you will

Safe to take supplements?
Hi, With all the meds I'm taking in first year after triple CABG is it safe to take supplements (namely Vitamin D / zinc in winter months)? Or will I be overwhelming my liver? Thanks

Sternum Clicking post CABG
I am experiencing Sternum Clicking post CABG. Now 4 weeks since surgery and I’ve had minor clicking for about 2-weeks. Like 4-6 clicks or pops per day, mostly later in the day when I’m tired. Have you experienced this and how long does it take to heal? Thanks so much. It’s a bit disturbing 🙃

4 weeks post cabg and back in hospital.
Hi everyone it's been 4 weeks since my double bypass. I've been having breathing issues and yesterday Dr's asked me to go to hospital as fluid on my left lung. Dr's have just done ward rounds and my left lung is full of fluid. I could either have a needle put in but it would only drain 1 1/2 litres so
