hi with triple vessel disease confirmed that too blocked more than 70 % , going for angioplasty is very mandatory with regular blood thinners and cardiac medications
Angiogram is the procedure done to find out the blood flow or the percentage of blockage. angioplasty is the procedure where stents are placed ,in the blocked vessels. it is always better to undergo the procedure after knowing about the blocks as early as possible, to prevent total blockage or irreversible damage to the heart.
yes, by angioplasty you will get your blocks reduced, with free blood flow to the vessels of the heart, after which you have to change your life style,avoid stress, take the cardiac medications properly to keep the stent patent & regular cardiac check ups.
all the best take care
