How Do Clogged Arteries Affect The Heart?
I had a heart cathorization done. I had no blockage in the main arteries but I had some closed arteries in the bottom of my heart. Too small to do stents on. They said probably treatable by medicine. Would I be experiencing any affects from these bloc kages? Im 60 and had open heart surgery at the age of 40. Luckily no heart attack.

Hello,
As there are blockages in the bottom of the heart, there is the chance of heart attack but that will be mild. No risk to life. Take proper precautions. Take medicines regularly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
