Has anyone had an implant after having heart problems such as heart attack? Can you have a normal active sex life after having a heart attack or is it pretty much over after this?

I think it's just like the commercials for Viagra, "Ask your doctor if your heart is healthy enough for sex."

I had a triple bypass in 2014, passed a full stress test for my DOT physical and was approved by my Heart Doctor for the implant.

I have HCM and was approved for my surgery. Just discuss with your cardiologist and let them make the call. You should be talking about stuff like this with them anyway. We've only got one heart, make it last as long as possible.
