QUOTE(hoonanoo @ Aug 7 2023, 02:12 PM) doing a full cardiac test soon. But I've noticed some people who have had heart bypassed, came out as strong as an ox. I really think some HRs are being very unfair towards those who have had in past done heart surgeries. Bypass and angioplasty/stents are very different things bro. I hope you never need a bypass. And here wishing you the best of health and luck that you’ll won’t even need an angioplasty |

QUOTE(hoonanoo @ Aug 9 2023, 10:04 AM) If got blockage, can medication resolve it ? I hope its not the type of medication one needs to take for the rest of life. If its statin, I have no issue. Depends on how severe the blockage. As a minimum, you’ll likely be put on statins and a blood thinner. Your BP will also be aggressively monitored and medication be initiated at the earliest signs of a rising BP, and you’d be asked to stop smoking and reduce your weight. Disclaimer - I’m not a cardiologist, but these are basic medical facts that all doctors learn during their undergraduate days. This post has been edited by hksgmy: Aug 9 2023, 10:12 AM |

QUOTE(guysmiley @ Aug 9 2023, 10:35 AM) weird bcoz doctor said better bypass as it can last longer than angioplatsy. I'll definitely defer to the doctor's opinion. Your case could be different as you had already suffered an AMI previously. Good luck and all the very best bro! |

QUOTE(hoonanoo @ Aug 10 2023, 05:33 PM) i know. but it still doesn't address the partial blockage at all. Err... no, it doesn't "address" the partial blockage, but it is still a part of the solution. |
