Is a stent or bypass called for?

Stent vs. Bypass: A cardiologist needs to know a lot more to offer an opinion. Consider a virtual visit w/a cardiologist through Health Tap or get a second opinion where you are. Peace and good health.

Using this site: Your post has NO USEFUL INFORMATION. You can get the most benefit from this site when you provide adequate background information on an issue and then ask a related question. That said, I know of few docs that would even start to offer an opinion on the limited info than you could provide on this public site. This is the type of question only the treatment team with all the data/exam can answer.
