I recently had an angiogram with one stint inserted with one other artery 45 blocked. I am currently taking Plavix and Protonix. First question: since I still have a partial blockage will I have to stay on these two medications?
I feel shortness of breath going up stairs still and wonder if the ordeal will take time to get back in shape since its been four months since the procedure was done. Or am I having other heart problems. My cholesterol is at 218 and also Atrial Fib and Im 67yrs old and weigh 238 at 6' 1" I don't drink and don't smoke. I also have been diagnosed with silent Reflux and having some esophsgus acid build up and have to clear my throat especially in the morning, Can you help and evaluate my situation where Im at and your concerns. Thank you Michael
