hi,
thank-you for Providing the brief history of you.
As you have undergone The PTCA now you have a clot and referred to vascular surgeon you don't need to worry much. As you will be already onto the medication which will act as a safety barrier to stop Any major symptoms.
Post meeting the vascular surgeon you will be assessed thoroughly and treatment will be initiated.
