How Soon After Insertion Of Cardiac Stents Can A Person Return To Regular Chores?
Well, I thought I submitted my question, but, since this came up again submitting it again. Sorry if it is a dupicate. It took me forever to read the terms and conditions WHEW! How soon after insertion of 3 cardiac stents can a person, normally, expect to return to her job as a helper in clients homes? The duties include assistance with mobility, transfers from w/c to recliner and toilet, which at times require light lifting; preparing meals, feeding client and light housework. Thank you.

Hi,
After the placement of stents(even if it is 3 in number), a person can lead an active life within a wk's time. As the duties which you have mentioned seem to be light work and strenuous, you can carry on with the routine job.
Good luck..
