any advice

Post a new topicby mrb on Mon Feb 04, 2008 10:21 am

My husband was detected a blockage in his right coronary artery.The doctor said blockage was 100 percent.He is just 36 years old,he had no symptoms except for getting tired lately.The doctor also said that there isnothing they can do to repair the blockage as he is too young for bypass surgery.she prescribed him some medicines and he has to use it all his life.We r very depressed and wanted some advice as to what to do.

some times a blockage cannot be opened with a stent, but bypass can be done on all ages! Contact a good heart clinic, see another cardiologist!
