They did a heart catheter last Friday and put in a stent and ballooned another part of the vein, that they could not get a stent into....my bottomline is 3 veins blocked , 2 at 50% and 1 at 90 %, I am probably looking at open-heart surgery in 7 to 10 yrs, as a stent is not a permanent fix. I will be on blood thinners for the rest of my life....all that sucks , but sure glad I am sitting here typing this..... so if ya jaw aches or you are short of breath and you feel as if you have a dry cough.....Talk to a good heart doc !
