This procedure is almost painless unless they go through the neck then you will feel sore getting up outta bed or chair (use force ) but give it 2 days and you'll be fine

Dang. Your one tough kid. Respect brother

It's sucks man but I'm pushing through thank god

How’s your heart health now?

@@annomaly751 The heart is still beating. What a change I felt after a couple weeks. Felt more alive and alot more energy. Ty for asking. 4 stents did the trick I guess

@@1964flyerswhen did you stop taking anti clogging med?

The doctor put on the card that he sent me home with that i should only be on the thinners for 1 year following the procedure

@@1964flyers glad you are doing well...did you quit smoking?

My dad is probably going to have one done soon probably next month or so. Did it hurt or have a heart attack during it or no any suggestions. He nervous! Thanks 😊

Glad you pass it well.. my mom has it today. I am very nervous btw

@@karunadevitanuwidjaja474 Relax. It was easier, for me, than a trip to the dentist. I drove myself there, and home, afterwards, too. I swear, if it was any easier, they could do it in a drive-through; at least, that's what I told my doctors. Mine is Dr. Dimas, and my confidence in him is unlimited. My first, (had a touch-up a year and a half later) I was there about 14 hours total. Spent most of the time reading a book, in recovery.

@@stephenshoemate6678 Yes, you're right. Glad she's done it well. The cath has been postponed until yesterday. Now we are scheduled to wait for our time to going back home. My mum has ASD problem and she is 60 this year. The doc said that she has an opportunity to get her leaked valve repaired. That makes me nervous actually, but thankfully 1 step closer to it. Anyway, you did a very good job and glad you're survived! Happy healthy day to you and fam

Thank you for giving the patient’s side of the procedure. I am going in for this procedure on Wednesday and as the time ticks by, I am getting more and more nervous. How are you feeling now?

How you feelin now ? Did the procedure do anything ?

That's my biggest fear!! I have BAD panic episodes

@@HasibKZfaq not really, heart was good, no blockage or damage😊

@@sarah.the.clumsy yeees so do I! It was scary in the beginning but then I mellowed out, I thought it went by pretty fast to be honest lol

I wasn't a bit anxious; I trust every doctor I have, or change them. I took a book to read, before and after.

Had mine done through the groin. There was no pain.

@@kimgraham4522 wonder why some docs use the wrist instead of groin?? Seems like most use groin.

I had it done awake and it hurt a lot I was crying. You were lucky

Moe ahad agreed. They shouldn't give such a hard time about that. It's a one-time deal. Just throw me 4 or 5 xanie bars and I'll be ready for anything. I just got diagnosed with Pulmonary Hypertension and I see my Pulmonologist in the beginning of July. And from what I heard, they will 100% do a right side heart cath and I'm shitting twinkies 😨

Moe ahad BTW, how'd it go???

They can and do sometimes if the patient is very anxious.

@@sledgehammer7567 lmao shitting Twinkies LMFAO r u ok now?

I've gone through this a dozen times. I've had 2 heart attacks and so many angiograms I lost count. My last one was done in July 2016 where they found 13 blockages and ended up placing 6-stents in my arteries which now add up to a total of 13-stents and a ton of angioplasty. Today is April 20, 2019 and I'm scheduled to have another angiogram performed on me within the next 2 weeks. I have a nagging feeling that if my Cardiologist finds anything that I will be looking at bypass surgery, which is fine with me, I just want to be fixed up. I'm 65 years old, in the last 3 years I've had 5 strokes, one in my Frontal lobe, one in my Temporal lobe and 3 in my Thalamus, I have Epilepsy combined with Complex Partial Seizure Disorders, White Brain Matter disease, I'm being tested for dementia and my neurologist is leaning towards Vascular disease being the cause, I also have type 2 diabetes, chronic pain in my lower back Sciatica, I have approximately 13 neurological symptoms I deal with everyday like short term memory loss, hallucinations, confusion etc, dizziness, balance issues and falling down. Peripheral Neuropathy in my feet and hands but i never complain, my wife takes care of me and together we get through each day, I thank God for her, she's an angel.

Text is nothing. O didnt get stents. I had to gave a by pass. Which was nothing.pnly hurt when you cough

Yes I had it done more then twice I don't remember how it is but just believe in God I have a heart condition myself

I had it last monday the side effects was horrible experience i am happy is all over and i was put to sleep for it

My experience was positive. No pain or discomfort. Recovery was painless as well. Was awake for entire procedure.

Just had mines yesterday, anxiety was crazy. They keep u awake 😪After all the meds they gave I still cried from being in so much pain in my wrist. The artery wouldn't open up and they had to keep going in and out. After completing, recovery was HORRIBLE. Nausea and migraine were at a 10 til this morning 😪 and I have a high tolerance level, even high doses of Fentanyl didn't help

@@bananasplit745 really i have to have the procedure done on Friday n I’m terrified they are not giving me any medicine I don’t like that at all.. omg that can I possibly do.. this is crazy they need to put me to sleep I have anxiety bad…I might call and cancel

How are you now?

Christ your doctor should’ve been referred you! I’ve not passed out but I know the feeling of a vtach episode, it’s genuinely sickening.

My ablation couldn't have been much easier. It was for afib. I'd read up on it, and had no qualms at all. Low impact surgery.

Probably ! You need to make your own appointment ASAP .He shouldn't be wasting time.

I don't know what all your problems are, but I had ablation for a-fib last month. Was calm going in, since I knew what was involved; no reservations or fears. The reality was even easier. Walked into the hospital at 7 AM, got checked in and prepped, in the OR bt 10:30. Awake in recovery by 4 PM, and walked out of hospital before noon the next day. Incredible! Minor soreness at both incisions, at the tops of my legs, and minor sore throat from the imaging equipment. I slept through all the insertion, use, and extraction. If tpld I need it again, I wouldn't hesitate a second. Any easier, and it would be done in a drive-through. I feel stronger, with more stamina, too. This was performed at the county hospital, not some more luxurious one that caters to people who can afford higher-priced surroundings. Relax, and worry about what's for supper, instead of the medical stuff. This is not something to stress about, at least mine wasn't. I'm still amazed at how easy it was, but I have total confidence in my doctors and nurses. I posted some pictures in google maps, under John Peter Smith hospital. I felt that good afterwards. Note clock time on wall.

Stephen Shoemate same here I have Sustained Vtach, but I just had an ablation on the 30th @ 8:30 am! I wasn’t as nervous as the fist one it was easy! They also let me out about 8 the next morning, if I had to I’d op for a 3rd anything to keep me from getting a pacemaker!

Yes

Zain jutt it’s not painful, imo it’s not

Tiny sting when they stuck the IV in the back of my hand, much less than flea bite. Minor soreness at top of each leg when on my feet, afterward. Don't worry about it. I'd worry more about someone hitting my car, going to or from the hospital. A stubbed toe has caused me more pain than this operation. Just relax, and let them do their thing.

Zain jutt My Cath was a breeze. No pain at all.

Mine was incredibly painless. Very tiny sting when IV was started. Minor soreness after procedure; top of each leg, and throat, for a few days. I really can't remember any hospital visit with less pain. My last several shots hurt more, each, than this did. Just relax.

It's going to hurt like a bitch once the anesthesia wears out.....sitting on any hard surface for the next few weeks hurts....
