Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
It would be advisable to get an evaluation done with ECG and consult your doctor for the same as it can be a possibility that the grafts may have been blocked. If it is normal then it could be GERD which will settle with antacids.
Don't worry, he will be alright.
Thanks.
