cardial artery blockage?
Posted on Filed under: Artery Blockage — admin @ 6:03 pm
I have a 70% artery blockage and have started drug therapy for blood pressure and colesterol. Will the blockage go away and if so, where does the stuff go.
The blockage is not going to go away- because the cholesterol is like cement on the arteries. The cholesterol agents will help to decrease future build up. There are therapies such as stenting or ballooning the area to open it more. Aspirin is also a good thing-as it thins the blood to allow the blood to flow more freely through the vessels.

That much blockage they usually do surgery or put a stent in to open it up. maybe they are trying the medication first because they don’t feel the surgery is a good idea.

that can arrive that artery blocking leaves after drug therapy or remains at this time a bridging ( pontage) will be the welcome treatment.
