I'm feeling some tightness in my heart, and after going to the cardiologist, they gave me prothiaden tablets. What exactly are these tablets for? I'm a bit anxious about what they do and why they're necessary in my case. Can you explain more about it?

I'm really concerned about a blockage in all three arteries. I'm worried but also wondering how much time we might have to safely delay surgery. Can you provide some guidance on this?

The patient should not delay surgery if there is blockage in all three arteries at such high percentages. Immediate medical intervention is necessary to prevent any serious complications such as heart attack or stroke. Please consult a cardiologist for further evaluation and treatment.
