recent stent fitted

[Joyceb1]

I had a stent fitted 3 weeks ago, im still extremely tired and nauseus, and ache all over. I have panic attacks if i go out. I'm normally a very confident person. I thought I would start to feel better by now.

I would appreciate any comments, Thanks

Is this stent related to heart issues or some type of intestinal issues. Please clarify.

it was a heart attack

This site is for intestinal and stomach problems. You need to go to a heart related site for information about this.

Hi, i had 5 stents fitted two years ago. It does take time to feel normal again. Its a big change so be kind to yourself. Anxiety and panic attacks after this is very normal, i had them too, but do try n get out, little by little, it will do you good. Best wishes to you.
