It means either a percutaneous coronary intervention with a stent or CABG. You may be. But I am not.You need to undergo some re-vascularisation procedure. What do you mean by that Doctor ? Can I get my heart re-vascularised by drugs alone Doctor ? No we can’t. Hmmm , wait, we do have something called OMT/GDMT.
