Hi ... I A Very Fit Male - Non Smoker

Hi ... I a very fit male - non smoker - exercised hard my whole life .. 57 years of age.
Three days ago - had chest pain - went to emergency ... they found low levels of troponan and so underwent angiplasty - stent placed for one narrowing. Rest of heart good. resting heart rate - 50 bpm.
now three days after stent placement - no chest pain - feeling good - went for 1 kilometre walk (not run) - no probs. Only thing - having some need to belch - which was in fact one of the symptoms on the night before the attack ... should i be concerned - and head back in, or would this symptom be considered in normal range post angioplasty? Thank you
