What Causes Chest Pain And Loss Of Appetite After Placing A Stent?
Hi my 71 year old father has had a stent fitted yesterday through his wrist. He is still in hospital as they are having trouble raising his blood pressure. Dad is suffering from chest pain, loss of appetite, very apathetic. Not like him at all. As far as i can tell he has had a quarter bag of saline then was taken off it, no explanation. Had 3 ecg s done, all normal. Am worried

Hello,
Perhaps something went wrong, or there is a possible complication along with stent placement.
I should see his lab reports before determining the right diagnosis. Please send them to me for further evaluation.
Let the doctors do their job. Wait for improvement.
Remember: everything is up to God's Will.
Wish the best for your father.
