I am a 54 year old male who has had three open heart surgeries and six stents. Eight weeks ago I had my third surgery and then last week had to have my sixth stent. It seems my problem is scar tissue closing off my by-passes. Any ideas or advice?
I would get another Cardiologist to look at me just to make sure everything was kosher. I would not do that radioactive treatment thing they do to get rid of scar tissue. My cardiologist told me it was a horrible procedure that basically took your living vessel and turned it into a garden hose.
That the same as i have been told today.....3 stents and 1 bypass later......All seem to be rejecting or having lots of scar tissue.....
