Yes I certainly will get to the hospital right away next time. I really liked hearing from the others as well
How long to the stents last? Do they ever colapse...and if they do what happens?

Hello Heart team. I had another chemical stress for indigestion symptoms, the test says scars from a previous MI (sudden coronary dissection) that had in 2019, it also says without appreciable Ischemia. I'm thinking no blockage., I have a follow up soon, a cardiologist was there but not doing testing,vso if it was very bad, he would have visited them.

It's quite common for someone with heart disease to suffer from depression. I have the odd bout of the black dog but I go for a walk with my beautiful Charlie and he always cheers me up.
I had a heart attack 2 weeks ago, and had 4 stents put in. I am schedule for multi bypass surgery in September. They told me that I should start to slowly walk after 2 weeks since the heart attack, but I just don't have the wind or the energy to walk. All I do is sleep. I'm 64 years old, and prior to the heart attack I had more energy than this. Is it normal for me to be so very tired after 2 complete weeks of total rest and sleep?
Thank you.
You need to get up set a goal on length be of walk...it's hard at first but you can do it it gets easier
I am 80 yrs old and have been left with angina after 2 heart attacks and open heart surgery.
Sorry I just realized how stupid this is.
Please try to find someone that can help you with that. If it's not too much, leave it. Stay safe!
Hello everyone, I haven’t been on here in awhile. I’m about to go for a nuclear stress test, wondering if anyone can calm my nerves down and let me know that it’s not a big deal? Or is it? I pretty know what they are doing (kinda’) just trying to get some advice and or suggestions, I’m not liking that it may be close to 4 hours. Really would like to know how someone feels with these injections, it’s giving me anxiety to be truthful.
I had the Nuclear years ago and it wasn't not bad at all. Easy.
