Q. Can I take Ayurvedic treatment instead of stent for a 70 percent block?
Hi doctor,
I am suffering from diabetes and high blood pressure. A day back, I had an angiography due to diabetes and high blood pressure. One day before, l had angiography due to my two NYSE (healthcare index) having a block up to 70 percent. What should I do to cure it? My age is 37, and the doctor recommended placing stent, but I want to take ayurvedic treatment. Please advice.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I understand your concern.
The appropriate management of your ischemic heart disease includes:
1. Strict control of blood sugar level (HbA1c (glycated hemoglobin) below 7 percent).
2. Strict control of blood pressure (below 130/80 mm/Hg).
3. Regular medications for the heart.
Indications for stent for ischemic heart patients :
1. Severe, frequent chest pain not controlled with medications.
2. Tight focal lesions in angiography.
3. In acute blocking of the coronary vessel (myocardial infarction).
*Otherwise, stent is optional based on your preference.
To be able to provide further advice, please send me a photocopy of the angiography report and your last ECG (electrocardiogram).
Have you sustained any myocardial infarctions recently?
How frequent is your chest pain? Your feedback will be appreciated.
Kind regards.
