  1. Hello everybody,

    My father has serious heart problems : One year ago he had an heart
    attack, and after it he had staints (stains?) placed in his arteries
    by a surgeon. Since then, he has slowly been recovering from this
    heart attack, except that he started having ESAs (Extra Systole
    Auriculaires) a few weeks ago. Although his cardiologist says that
    these ESA are not a major problem and that they are not necessarily
    related to his previous heart attack, I am still wondering whether
    this is not a new degradation of his heart condition. Has anybody got
    experiences about ESAs that he could share with me ?

    Cheers,

    leon

    ESAs (PACs here in the USA) are benign.
