I Had A Stent Implanted In My Upper Left Leg

I had a stent implanted in my upper left leg (where it meets the torso) one week ago. My medical support team instructed me to go easy for the two weeks until my follow up appointment next week (no strenuous activities, lifting, etc...). My question is what do I need to be aware of going forward as a result of this procedure? I was placed on a blood thinner which will have to continue but will I have any physical limitations?
