hello,I have gone through your query.Thanks for using HCM.I understand that you have undergone CABG and stenting,inspite of that you still have angina.I am sure your treating doctor has given fully optimized medication.In this case there is procedure called external enhanced counter pulsations I.e.EECP.This will help your heart to develop micro collaterals beyond the blocks of larger arteries.
