Hello...
If you has been advised for angiogram, it means there is a doubt in your heart supply competency. If after angiogram, significant block (>70%) is seen then you has been advised for stenting. After a successful stenting, you can do your routine physical activities what you are doing now. There is no significant changes in physical activity after successful stenting.
Thank You
