Following a stent in April and still getting pains, despite being told all was ok now, after pushing for more tests I was booked in for another stenting.

Long story short some SOB and pain ended up in A&E and treated as in patient

Angiogram and 3 long stents to my LAD I’m hoping that’s it now !

a couple of questions for those who have had stenting / similar.

So firstly this one hurt after the stents were out in. Central chest pain crushing that required fentanyl l!

Also some wierd dropping feelings whilst being carried out.

Since I came out of the cath lab intermittently feeling my heart pounding and then like a jump in my chest . Accompanying this like a strange all over body sensation and then a bit weak feeling .

Anyone had anything similar ? My monitor I’m hooked onto showed a jump beat. Possibly eptopic but are the sensations that go with it. Slight feeling of heavy ness too

also anyone have pain in chest the following day feels a bit heavy etx in middle

I had two stents after my heart attack but absolutely nothing like you describe. I had sedation when it was done but was aware of everything. Felt woozy of course but that's all. I didn't feel anything at all from the stents but in the 3 weeks after had lots of horrible side effects from the tablets

Not what you're looking for?
