A Friend Of Mine, Age 50, With A Family History

A friend of mine, age 50, with a family history of heart issues, went in for a checkup (no emergency that he knew of) and learned he would need quadruple bypass surgery. He had it today and it turned out he needed 6 bypasses. Is recovery time longer or immediate risk greater for so many bypasses?
