Total Coronary Occlusion
I went to my GP with chest pain that I had been suffering from for a few months. The pain was on the right side of my chest and apart from one incident where it REALLY hurt, mostly it started in both sides of my jaw, then spread to both armpits and finally felt like I had just smoked too much. It would

down time...
Hi there everyone..I've been debating on whether to post this or not for the past 3 weeks as I don't want to sound maudling or negative as positivity is paramount after a CABG..and I know it's my responsibility to see my GP..but in order to save both hers and my time I thought I would ask if anyone else

Numbness and tingling after wrist fusion surgery
I’m nearly 2 weeks post op after having a wrist fusion and existing metal work in my hand moved about. The day after the first surgery I had no feeling or movement in my thumb, index or middle finger… so was then taken back down to theatre for carpel tunnel syndrome surgery. Was a definite improvement

Meeting my Surgeon tomorrow..
The day has finally arrived when I will meet the guy who is going to be doing my CABG. I have heard so many positive things from people on this forum about James Cook Hospital and the care given to patients. I know that the surgery will happen very quickly as the waiting lists are short. To tell you

Angina?
Hi, I am seeking some advice required from those who have had CABG. I had surgery about 15 months ago. all seemingly going swimmingly until about two weeks ago, when I started to experience discomfort in my left arm, akin to what I suffered pre-heart attack and surgery. Ache, and heaviness in my chest

Feeling so down after months of trying everything. Would really appreciate advice on latest bloods.
Apologies for a long post. As some of you may know, I have tried so hard to help myself since Hashis diagnosis last March. I’ve been gluten free and mainly also grain free (which I find such hard work) since April, I’ve followed numerous protocols on the advice of a functional nutritionist to heal my

2 days on from Angiogram
So...I have had my Bisoprolol increased to 2.5mg after my Angiogram and being advised that I need a CABG. I don't know if I am tired due to the emotional impact of the news or the Bisoprolol as my resting heart rate drops to around 39bpm when sat relaxed. I spoke to the cardiologist about the concern
