My father is 67 years old and he has good physicaly fit. He is suger (reached to max 198 not obsevered more then that) pationt from last 10 years but it is in control manner. No bad habbit like smoking, dringing and no non-veg. We are from haryana so using milk product much like Milk, Dahi, lassi.

2 week before after having dinner he had pain in his center chest. After 2-3 hrs it get normal. Next day he went to dr. (gernal physicine ) to check dr. diagnoses and found BP and gastic. For that he gave medicine.

This pain observed 2-3 day after having food (lunch, dinner) but time is less as it was initial.

After that dr. advised to do TMT test, and we went to Medanta hospital (Gurgaon). They did angiography and give below reports. Asked to do immediate angeoplasty with 3 steont.

    Mahsingh,

    I have some medical background but I'm not a Dr. From what I can tell, your dad has some blockage in at least 3 main veins of his heart. ANYTHING to do with the heart is important and you need to take your dad and probably do the stints as advised. It will open those veins for him. PLEASE MAKE THESE PEOPLE TALK TO YOU SO THAT YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT'S TRULY HAPPENING. IT'S YOUR RIGHT. Good luck and let us know! Ladyjack51

    I'd be following the advice given after the angiography:  ie arrange for the stents to be inserted ASAP
