Brief Answer:
You need Angioplasty.
Detailed Answer:
Greeting from Dr. Divakara.P
First of all thanks for choosing Healthcaremagic for posting your query.
You are on right medications. Initially you were given Enam for which cough is a well known side effect and hence changed to Telma which is absolutely correct. Rest all other medications are fine .
Apart from medications I advise you to undergo Coronary Angiogram with stenting which is more beneficial for your heart.
As of prognosis is concerned it depends on the Angiogram findings and EF ( Ejection fraction ). In your report it has been mentioned as 3.8% which is wrong as such low EF is not compatible with life . Kindly consult your cardiologist and ask him about your EF.
. Hope you find this information useful.
Any clarifications or Queries feel free to ask.
