Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello dear and thanks for posting your query here. I understand your concern about your father in law but as he is having recurrence of angina and there are blocked arteries, the arteries need to be opened up to supply the adequate amount of blood to the heart muscles to relieve his ischemia and anginal pain. Afterwards he must continue taking the antiplatelets which are blood thinners for the rest of his life. I hope this information would be of help to you. Thanks and all the best.
