But, I didn't have the complications you had, either.<BR/><BR/>My stent placement didn't affect my cycles at all. You need to keep going back to the doctor to get to the source of the problem. That is the biggest thing I learned from my experience.<BR/><BR/>Good luck!<BR/>CindyBAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13235409345982840443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29683934.post-1171601074659126212007-02-15T20:44:00.000-08:002007-02-15T20:44:00.000-08:00I came across your blog tonight. You sound so chee...I came across your blog tonight. You sound so cheery. I don't feel so cheery. I had a stent placed on Dember 1st. I am 44. I had no prior family history and thought I was in good health overall. No medical conditions like high chol or pressure, diabeties,etc. I am not overweight and am fairly active. Then bang, shortness of breath and an ER visit and within hours I am found to have a 90& blockage in my LAD and am in OR in hours getting a stent placed. (I also had the complication of having the doctors nick my artery in my groin and had massive internal bleeding and emergency surgery to stop the bleeding a few hours later after I crashed a couple of times too, which may have taken a toll on me)<BR/><BR/>Since then I am having trouble getting my strength back, I feel very emotional. I don't know for sure, but I think that this may have also sped up my dive toward menopause since my cycle has been crazy since then too. I'm on new meds, which I was on none before may have some effects, but the doctors deny that. Anyway, I thought it was nice how you have recover so well. I wondered how long since your surgery.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
