International travel - medication
After
angioplasty
and 3 stents I now have to take medication daily. Question: when you travel to a different time zone do you switch your medication time or try and stay with your home schedule. The time difference will be 8 hours. Thanks for your input!

CHD aged 29
Then it all cbanged, after a near collapse on the hockey pitch and many tests later last week I had an angiogram and
angioplasty
. My LAD was completely blocked and I was told if they couldn't get the wire down I may need a bypass. Due to the location it was not safe to stent either.

Heart rate very low, how normal is that?
Hi all, I had
angioplasty
and 3 stents inserted about 6 weeks ago. I never had a heart attack, just quite blocked coronary arteries. Stenting most likely saved my life and I generally feel great. I exercise daily and run 5km (under 30 minutes) about 4 times a week.

Travel insurance post heart attack
Has anyone else attempted to get cover after a heart attack and
angioplasty
? Is there an optimum time following treatment when premiums are more reasonable? I had my heart attack and treatment four weeks ago. Many thanks. Johnyp.

Angioplasty Risks/Benefits
It doesnt sound like a straight forward
angioplasty
as he said they need to enter through wrist and groin to approach the blockage from both directions and the operation would take about two hours.

Stents @ medication
I signed up to this great site 5 weeks ago as a newbie and put a short post about my history with heart attacks, I spent some time looking through a lot of posts particularly in relation to people that have had a heart attack caused by a blocked artery and then have
angioplasty
to sort the problem.

I'm New Here
I was diagnosed with CVD (cardio-vascular disease) 18 years ago and have had angina, 3 MIs (Myocardial Infarctions or heart attacks),
angioplasty
, a huge aneurysm, by-pass surgery, AF (atrial fibrillation) and medically-managed heart failure. I am now 72 and pretty well all things considered.

Hello all, I am ET jak2+ diagnosed 2012 age 57, I have been on hydroxy for a year following
angioplasty
as a result of this disease. I take 1gm per day but my platelets are still rising, increased dose is not an option as I am anaemic.

Travel after Angioplasty
Hi, I'm new to group. I had 3 stents put in 10 years ago and now need to have another one - scheduled for PCI on 10th October. I have a holiday booked to Cuba on 9th November, I'm curious to know if I would be OK to travel 4 weeks after procedure or if I need to cancel. Secondly I had travel insurance

stents inside stents which are inside stents!
Each time stents x 2 via
angioplasty
. Second time, first stents blocked up and new stents were inserted inside old stents! Rare they said but not unheard of.

Anxiety
I am still getting episodes of anxiety post HA and
Angioplasty
. I am taking Atorvastatin and I can see it’s a side effect of the drug - should I ask to switch to another drug or do all statins cause anxiety?
