[quote=Anonymous]Cardiac Cath's are not a big deal; they are minimally invasive. I have had 4 of them; two have involved stents and were life saving. Here is how it works: they put it in through your leg or risk, image the heart, and if it is ok, pull it out. Then then keep you there four several hours to minimize the risk of bleeding, and send you home. If they have to do something (angioplasty/stent), they keep you overnight. In my case, I got the stent on Friday and was at work on monday. The other time, there were other things done in the same hospital stay (pacemaker) which lead to a longer recovery time.[/quote]
