Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Second surgery and angioplasty may not be possible. He can continue blood thinners and he will be at a very high risk for another attack any time. Avoid physical exertions and emotional outburst.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain
