  • which type of treatment would be advisable for me ..people are suggesting angioplasty but not in Karachi ...somewhere in the UK, Dubai or USA. Can any specialist advise?

  • I had a heart attack 12 years ago (angioplasty revealed left main artery 80% blockage in ONE artery only) at 32 yrs..and since then no angina pains despite heavy exercise (upto 1.5-2 hours medium weight workouts preceded and followed by either a 'walk/jog' warm up or squash or swimming. But recently I am experiencing angina again, the same 'type' of pain that i had experienced 12 years ago but of a much lower grade. also, i had ECG changes in my recent ETT. Only one of my arteries is blocked

  • Is angioplasty a safe option in less developed countries such as Pakistan ..or will the best results come from having the procedure done in, say Dubai, or USA??

  • VERY INFORMATIVE.............THNS FOR LOADING
