I'm Scheduled For A Heart Cath And Possible Stent Next Week And I'm A Little Anxious. I'd Like To Hear From Anyone Who Has Undergone This.
I had angiogram done 5 times. Nothing to get up set about. Dr will walk you through what he will do. You can see it while he is doing a angiogram on the TV scene. For having a Stent if needed it will be done right there the same time .
I have had 5. First one was in 1970. The last one they went thru my wrist. I have had 1 through the groin and one thru my elbow area. f They do give you something to relax you. I went home the next morning. I have never had a stint. I have had also have had 2 open heart surgeries. Medicine has come a long way. Everyone is a little anxious. Just keep thinking positive. You got this.βΊοΈ
Piece of cake . Find out if they are going thru your wrist or groin . I just had a heart Cath less than a month ago. Watched the whole thing . They went in thru my wrist . The only discomfort is the pressure band you wear for almost 45 minutes after . The groin is a bit more involved . Iβm having a (watchman ) put in January 9 and that goes into the groin but I will be asleep . Check with your Dr . You will feel better π my prayers are with you π
