A member asked:

I just got 4 stents put into the artery they call the widow maker. what are the odds i have other heart attack. doctors say i'm ill clear right now?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

CAD: If you have enough CAD at age 38 years to require stenting, then you need lifelong attention to your condition. This would include diet, exercise, medications and monitoring your condition. You should certainly have nothing to do with tobacco which can exacerbate CAD. You should have a conversation with your cardiologist to discuss what you need to do for your future.
