HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, look whether it is widow artery or anything but if it is bad lesion and not taken proper care then consequences would be bad if care being taken in proper way even if it is widow artery then survival rate would be very promising, hope this helps, and have a nice day.
