Had an abnormal nuclear stress test. Could be looking at angiogram. Has anyone had one? What was it like? How long was hospitalization and recuperation?
I have had 11 angiograms,11 stents and a triple heart bypass. Nothing to worry about . I was back to work in 3 days..
I found that limiting salt and fats from my diet helped a lot.
I find that having a clove of raw garlic a day chewing it up with a sandwich helped my blood and me feel better
I had a burning sensation in my chest that felt like i had been running. I drove to the e.r. and found i was in heart failure. They sent me to the st. Marks hosp. In s.l.c. utah and they did a… read more
Has anyone been prescribed Amiodarone for afib? When in hospital for 3 months , it was prescribed as I guess I had serious case. They lowered the dose from 400mg to 200mg when I came home. On a cardiologist phone visit my dr said I don’t have afib (it’s the kind that comes and goes). So why am I on Med for afib? Looked up Amiodarone and it is very toxic and I have ten of the numerous side effects! It is a very long time (weeks and months) to get out of the system. Anyone have it and how… read more

One test i think was very important finding my condition was the Echocardiography (echo) .
James Sloan: Echocardiography Initial Test. — I agree. That was the test that showed my problem quickly. Sorry for replying so much later than the post.
I've been on Entresto, Carvedilol, Furosemide, and Potassium since I was diagnosed with HF with and ejection fraction of 27 in 2021. I had an echo in August and my EF was 51, so I've been managing it well. I have also had severe pain in my left hip from bone on bone arthritis so I can't really walk much right now. I had to to see my cardiologist for surgery clearance for hip replacement surgery. While they found some areas that were a little concerning on my stress test, they said it could be… read more
