[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am so sorry for your losses. This artery being less than 100% blocked may BE lifestyle triumphing over genetics—but it’s also a good reminder that lifestyle hawks are engaged in some degree of self-delusion and that people don’t deserve blame for their medical mishaps.

I am sure someone will have good ideas on treatment. So good that it was caught now![/quote]

That's a very good point about lifestyle preventing it from being 100% blocked by now. All siblings and mother died/had their first issues in their 40s. My dad's first heart attack was my age and survived until  his 2nd heart attack killed him in his mid 60s. I realize that everyone is different and my treatment plan may be different from others but I was just wondering what other folks may have had done. Maybe next step might be to go in with scope, or maybe get a stent, or maybe wait until it becomes even more blocked and then get a stent. Just curious what others had done and what others were told. I see my family doctor late next week and I'll see what he says and then go see a cardiologist.[/quote]
