It's around stent blockage chances 6% per yr... Since some person stent get blocked with in year and some with more than 8-10yrs... Medication sudden stoppage commonly causes stent blockages.... And what about new blockages...if no t taken proper care ...no healthy lifestyle then new blockages can come ...don't worry about stents ...just follow medication and healthy lifestyle...take care
