A member asked:
What symptoms generally arise if in lm (left main) stenosis 40%? whether dangerous? what treatment needed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Left main: Your left main artery is the first branch of your left coronary artery that come off your aorta. At 40 percent and if you are asymptomatic the cardiologist would probably treat you with medical therapy. I see you are on Pradaxa, Talk to your doctor about baby aspirin, may be helpful, but careful with being on Pradaxa. No smoking, watch cholesterol, BP. Exercise, low glycemic diet.
