Heart Diseases

Aproximately one year ago I had three stents inserted in two arteries to my heart. I didn't suffer a heart attack. My two arteries were 90% restricted. There is no heart damage. I read an article that said that the drug coated stents work for three years. The article did not state what happens after the three years.

I had AV nod re-entrant tachycardia and kept winding up in the ER with pulse rates over 240, I was terrified of getting more Adenocard, so they ablated it, I had palpitations something terrible for about 8 months after the procedure which seem to have stopped for the most part. Now I am wondering if I have made myself at a higher risk for future heart problems which they never thought about like what if I needed that accessory pathway for something they never told me about. I think the ablation was like a micro heart attac put in a great spot to make my heart beat right. At any rate, the physician who fixed me was sent from God and I am so thankful he took the time and fixed me. I feel like it is almost too good to be true.

My 2yr old son has VSD since birth & his doc insisted an open heart surgery be done ASAP. the thing is, my child has never turn blue or become breathless & no feeding probs watsoever,signs tat the doc said we shld look out for. So i'm sort of not keen on doing the surgery as of now. What will happen if we go for the surgery when he's bigger?

My heart started to hurt while I kept working on my computer for a whole night. I thought I will go away if I have some rest but it didn't. It hurts in the left upper side of the heart. I can't breath all the way because it hurts. It also hurts when I move from one side to the other or if I do sports. It's not a strong pain but it causes me disconfort... and it's been like this for 2 days already. Any ideea what it could be? Or what to do to make it go away? By the way, I'm 24 years old.
