hi,thanks for query.You can take second opinion about this.there are 2 school of thoughts one favors stent and other one favors bypass surgery in such case.You should discuss this with your doctor.You have not mentioned your city so it is difficult to comment on other questions.It varies from city to city.You can mail me the details.buy.
