Dear Sir/ madam
Thanks for writing to HCM.
1. Mild stenosis do not require any treatment (antianginals/ Stenting/CABG), but, only management for risk factors.
2. These involve control of blood sugar/ blood pressure/ cholesterol. No smoking. Stress free lifestyle and daily walk under your doctors supervision.
If you had written that why you underwent CT angio, it would have helped more.
Hope this helps.
Sincerely
Sukhvinder
