Hi Mr. Brown
There is least chance that medicated stent would cause you sleeplessness or stress. The reason for your troubles could be:
1. Your stress
2. Any medicaitons

In case of drugs, I would like to ask if you are having Bisoprolol, which we often prescribe patients as you. In 8-10% of my patients under Bisoprolol, dyssomnia has been reported to me. If you are under this medication, Kindly meet your Cardiologist, and get it switched with other medications of same class, that will solve your problem.

Overall, i would like you to calm yourselves, relax and have a healthy living.

Regards
