hi..i had a balloon angio done without stent 4 days ago. yesterday I experienced a bit of tightness near the end of a fast walk i went on. maybe too fast. i have 3 cardiac stents from 16 years ago and one of them became blocked with plaque build up. so a balloon was used to free it up. i feel ok at the moment. but am apprehensive nevertheless. im diabetic using humalog mix 75/25 insulin twice daily. im 67 years on the planet. im to see my consultant in 3 weeks time. cheers tom.
