I've been diagnosed with triple vessel disease, and they recommended angioplasty. I'm really hoping for a less invasive approach, like EECP or chelation therapy, but I can't find any doctors willing to even discuss these alternatives. I'm feeling a bit stuck and just wondering what other options might be out there for me. Would love any advice or insights on possible treatments besides surgery.

I'm really worried right now because my mom's been having chest pains. We took her to the doctor, and after doing the echo and ECG tests, they found out her ejection fraction is low, with an LVEF of 40-45. The doctor said we should wait 5 days for an angiography test, but I'm anxious. Do you think it's safe to wait that long or should we do it sooner?

Yes, it is important to follow your doctor's recommendation to undergo the angiography test. This test will provide more information about the blood flow to the heart and help determine the best course of treatment for your mother's condition. Waiting for 5 days should not cause any harm, but it is important to monitor her symptoms closely and seek medical attention if there are any sudden changes or worsening of chest pain.
