Are there any natural supplements really worth taking for AFib? There’s so many claims out there.
Been in permanent AFib since stemi, cardiac arrest and stent fitted 2 months ago. Not obese never smoked exercised hard 4 times a week. Curious about supplements but also curious about medical treatments of cardiac version and ablation as I’m seeing arythmia nurse to discuss options next week. Any info

AF frustration
Good morning, My husband had a NSTEMI heart attack in June of this year and his recovery has been slow due to repeated episodes of AF, he hasn't had an official diagnosis yet as the aftercare has been very limited and he hasn't seen a GP or consultant since having his stent fitted. He had an episode

Fostair Inhaler 100/6
How safe is the Fostair 100/6 inhaler please? After having been on a Symbicort inhaler since earlier this, my Asthma Nurse has changed my medication to a Fostair. Usually my breathing is under control but since beginning of this year, and after testing positive for Covid just after Christmas 2020, I

GCA culprit with possible plaque in artery
Has anybody had stents put in with GCA being the main culprit? I went for a scan and got the results and I can't find anything that means it's good or bad. My appointment with the vascular surgeon is tomorrow and was wondering if anyone on here can tell me if my distal external iliac artery is high

Heart Pills and Eczema
Nearly 10 months after starting on heart pills (ticagrelor, aspirin, ramipiril 2.5 , atorvastatin. lanzaprolole) following an angiogram (1 stent fitted), terrible eczema eruptions on my whole body plus itchy scalp and blocked ears. Could this be a side-effect of ramipiril which is a thiazide diuretic

No stent extra meds
After having a cardiology angiogram last I was told then by the cardiologist that I would need a stent but he would speak to colleagues. Then I got a letter to say I’m staying on my meds plus statin’s and aspirin. My finding were “Access was via the right radial artery. Results showed mild ascending

Back home after spending 10 days in hospital after a TAK flare up.
Was admitted to hospital 10 days ago after a violent flare up from TAK. Screaming headaches, which led to some numbness down my temple, cheek and jaw and heavy arms and tingling in little fingers and chest pain. At first they thought I had had a stroke or a heart attack. Anyway after many scans and X-rays

Esld
I've had cirrhosis for a few years now. I've had 4 bleeds, the last one was gastric but the first 3 were oesophagal. The last one resulted in a TIPS procedure which i believe is a stent through the liver. Now been told i have esld and without wishing to ask a daft question, what is the likely outcome

Do I still have angina?
I was diagnosed with angina about 7 years ago and after quite a few lifestyle changes I had it under control....I haven't needed to use my spray for years. Three months ago I had a heart attack and had two stents fitted to my LAD, apart from a couple of minor issues with dizziness if I stand up too quickly
