welcome to hcm ...mr arshad i understand that you are fearing surgery .ok please consult any other cardiologist in your city he will guode tjat whether your father can be cured by stent placement called angioplasty as stent is less risky than bypass surgery but take all reports to new doctor
usually stent and bypass have better result tjan drugs
drugs are decided according to sugar or bp or kidney function tests
i give tab nitrocontin 2.6 mg bd ..tab ecospirin 150 mg od ..tab ramipril 5 mg od ..tab metoprolol 25 mg od ..tab atorvastatin od ..but dosages are adjusted for parient to patient
please discuss all fears and doubts with new doctor ..there are good cardiologists in medical colleges of pakistan or you may come to india tp get good cardiac world class facilities at delhi ..chandigargh ..amritsar or jallandhar
