Q: is it advisable to wear a magnetic bracelet 5 years after having undergone angioplasty?

: Although not sure what you mean by "magnetic bracelet", would see no harm. Presence of a pacemaker, limits use of MRI equipment however, but unlikely that a small bracelet would be risky, and sounds like this was a vascular procedure, not a abnormal rhythm circumstance?
