Hi,

Based on the history you have shared, you had undergone a heart attack and the stent was placed in time and that’s the reason you survived it otherwise 85% stenosis can be fatal.

To keep the stent working properly and to avoid blockage in the other arteries of heart you need to continue taking medicines to keep the blood thin.

I would recommend you to continue your medications otherwise blockage in other arteries can be lethal.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
