I had an angioplasty 3.5 months ago, I'm 51, woman, no family history of heart disease, very low cholesterol, low blood pressure, not in menopause. I eat very healthy and exercised very regularly. I now
have started a cardiac physical rehab program, feel that I have had many issues withmedications, very unsettling side effects. Currently am on plavix, statin and baby aspirin. Why am I often soooo exhausted, and feeling lightheaded, I'm scared of activity because the fatigue feeling is so overwhelming, for this reason I started the cardiac rehab. Is perhaps 6 months or 1 year a more realistic benchmark to feeling better? Is it too soon now? I've gone back to work but am unable to sustain a full time schedule.
