Hi
I got home yesterday evening from hospital where I got installed another
stent (the coated one) Intersting enough my cardioligist told me he did not see much
of a difference in blockage on this artery from the old films 2 years ago when they put
in my first stent LAD. The CATH fellow said I had a 99% blockage Anyways since I was more short of breath and had CHEST and back
Pressure and a choking feeling especially when running AFIBS for 35hrs and this is going on
apx. evry 3 days. My question is this I got a April 19 apt to see Dr Steinberg in St Lukes what are
the drawbacks having a 2 arteries stented when doing the PVA?
Thanks
