Hi this is regarding my uncle who had stent in lad section 6 months ago When he had first stroke till 6 months he recovered completely but since 2 days onwards he is experiencing mild chest pain so we had taken him to hospital. As per the discussion by doctor he need to have more one blockage near by the old stent and more one blockage (which is starting now) on other side so he advised to have a more one stent. Here I had a doubt that is it fine to have more one stent it can we proceed for the bypass as already the first one has blockage ?If we proceed for stent is there any chance of blockage in future. Suggest me.
