It’s three years since I had a heart attack and stent fitted for a blocked artery. Im quite well but struggling a bit walking up hill and feel like I’m not getting enough oxygen.Am wondering if I should be getting any kind of follow up tests after three years to make sure everything is ok? Don’t want

experience with Buprenorphine
Greetings, I have been taking Buprenorphine for 5 weeks now and I am not exaggerating when I say it has changed my life. I have dealt with restless legs all my life. Everyone in my family had it, one of my brothers gave up on life because of it. I was taking Cabaser to treat it since about 2000.

New to ropinirole
My first time at a new neurologist. He started me on ropinirole 0.25mg 1/day at 7pm. I take 600mg gabapentin at 5pm and 9pm. He convinced me that I don't have CMT but have RLS. My feet are rather numb, and my ankles and shins hurt occasionally. I believe this is peripheral neuropathy, but he did not

Life Insurance Recommendation
Please can any members recommend a insurance company for life insurance. I'm a 50 year old male with no mortgage. I've had a heart condition since the age of two after receiving open heart surgery 1974 (Mustard Procedure) and in 2019 had a stent fitted to help blood circulation. Many Thanks, Paul

Dad has brain cancer, heart issues, and now PSA has increased. Concerned about medication complications..
Hello friends! It's been a long time since I've posted. It's hard to keep up with my dad's health on my end.. we've had so many close calls that his prostate cancer has felt like a bump on the head compared to all the rest of his concerns! So, to bring everyone up to speed as quickly as I can, dad

Percocet during Pramipexole Withdrawal
On Percocet 10mg at night to deal with augmentation from Pramipexole while waiting to get in to see a neurologist. What dose seems to work for people? Does it make you tired if you take it during the day? I’m experiencing Withdrawal during day now too.

Dental Implants
I had a heart attack back in June last year, had a stent fitted and have recently had a crt d fitted last month. My question is, my teeth are in tatters and I may need to consider implants... will this be possible?

trying to be normal
So I’ve had restless legs syndrome for over 25 years and I had been on ropinirole at least that long. I was up to 3 mg an evening on the ropinerol and it was getting worse. when I was able to meet with a doctor here in California who is very familiar with restless leg syndrome.. I am now on oxycodone

Unexplained symptoms after Heart attack
I had a heart attack in Aug 2020. Was in Cath. lab within 1 hour where they did an angioplasty and found Right Coronary Artery completely occluded. After 2 attempts they mostly cleared the clots, and put me on Rivaroxaban, clopidogrel, aspirin, bisoprolol. They could not put a stent in for technical

struggling to understand why!
hi I’m really struggling coming to terms with having a heart attack 2yrs ago at the age of 43. I’m a woman and told at the time they don’t know what caused my artery to collapse. I had a stent fitted. everytime I have back pain. Sore pressure like feeling in my neck. I think it happening again. Then

issues 3 months after heart attack
My husband had a heart attack 3 months ago and a stent fitted. His recovery was going well but about 3 weeks ago he was getting really tired and no energy and had a couple of vasovagal episodes on exercise . These happened at cardio rehab and an ambulance was called and visit to a&e and they said it

Trial for efficiency of stents versus placebo
2 weeks post angiogram/ angioplasty for the orbita trial. Obviously i don't know at the moment whether I had a stent, but things looking good angina wise at the moment. Managed a couple of brisk walks this week without any angina pain, so hoping I was one of the percentage who got a stent. Bruise

Who do I contact?
my LAD is 90% blocked. They’re unable to stent. After a stress test in an MRI a member of my consultants team phoned. He asked if I had any symptoms, I said no. He asked if I was still taking all the medications after a stent was put in another artery. I said I was. He asked how I felt about that? I

Got the Second Opinion
And I am SO glad I did! In a prior post, I had told about events leading up to a cardiologist getting snippy with me because I questioned the need for an ablation. The more research I did the more convinced I became that my gut feeling was right and I set up an appt. with a different doctor. Monday
