Is that due to an issue with the stents or the environment they are in? (E.g. how readily your blood clots.)You may recall that I made a few comments about my jaws getting very tired with walking ...not talking ! ,And thinking it might be heart related. This was a few weeks ago. Well yesterday morning I had a standard workup scheduled... Bloods, ECG Echogram, stress test , meet the consultant for pat on back....To say it went badly is an understatement.
The nurse prevaricated putting me on the stress test, after I was all wired up, saying the bloods hadn't been done. It seemed fishy. Then the Charge nurse insisted I not leave the premises, because of a blood enzyme and had to be immediately admitted. So I waited all afternoon for an angiogram, which resulted in a 2 hours in theatre. .. Angiogram are usually 20 minutes plus.... Bluntly one of the set of 3 stents fitted a year ago had totally clogged, and It was only the perfusion from another 3 stents in the other artery working perfectly which was keeping the show on the road. So a Dynarod job done , I am home now....
Sounds like that was just in time...
