After bypass surgery, your healthcare team will monitor your recovery and perform tests to assess the success of the procedure and overall heart health. These tests can include a coronary angiogram to check graft patency and blood flow, an echocardiogram to evaluate heart function, and cardiac CT angiography (CTA) to assess graft patency and surrounding structures

I've been experiencing this fluttering or skipped sensation in my chest and it feels like it's coming from the right side of my heart or the middle of my chest. It only lasts for about 2 to 4 seconds. Should I be concerned about this?

Hey, I was wondering at what point of heart or coronary artery blockage do doctors usually recommend angioplasty? I've been reading up on it and I'm a bit worried. Appreciate your insights on this!

ngioplasty is recommended depends not just on the percentage of blockage, but also on symptoms, overall heart health, and the location of the blockageIn patients with symptoms like chest pain or shortness of breath, a blockage of 70% or greater is usually considered significant enough to benefit from angioplasty to restore blood flow to the heart.
