What % of narrowing do you need for a stent as i've got 60% of mid lad and been dishcharged from cardio ? put on statins asprin ect .

Stent: There is no benefit to stenting lesions that are not causing symptoms or objective evidence of myocardial ischemia. It sounds like you are being treated appropriately. Try to learn about popper diet, not smoking and exercise in addition to statin and Aspirin to help yourself.
