A member asked:
My dad is 60 he had a heart attack involving 3 coronary arteries with a total of 9 blockages. he had stents put in. any ideas on his life expectancy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Good prognosis: If his left ventricular function is normal and if he follows the instructions of his doctors (no smoking, statin, dual anti-platelet therapy, blood pressure control, good diet, exercise), he can live a normal life expectancy and pass on at home in his sleep at a very advanced age.
