Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, My mother is 51 years old. On 26th Jan 2016, she felt angina and we took her to hospital. After doing an angiogram doctor told she had more than 75% stenosis to LAD and advised for a PTCA asap. On 16th Feb 2016 she was gone through an angioplasty and a drug eluting stent has been placed to her LAD. But doctor told me during the procedure a side branch was blocked. I came to know that the side branch is D1 artery. After the procedure, she felt a severe chest pain for 24 hours. I dont know how much it is blocked. Now she is having a chest pain on her left breast and after sometime autometically the pain reduced to zero. I am very worried. I really need to know how much that D1 artery blockage will create problems? Please help me.
