Hi just wondering if anyone could give me some info on coronary heart disease with ckd and diabetes. Is a triple bypass the right way to go.? My dad is 73 and had an angiogram last week with the result being 3 blocked arteries. His creatinon result was 158.

    Hi,

    It's basically impossible to advise on treatment from what you have given. I would however default to the guidance of your Dad's cardiologist. For info on his conditions have a look at the patient info pages on here, they are really good. If you have any more specific questions, just ask. smile

    Its the obvious way to go did they advise that? . If stents were the solution they would probably have fitted them then.
