HA and Stent

Can anybody relate to this story. My sister lives in Spain and just had a surprise HA, she then had a stent fitted to deal with a blocked artery. She is feeling fine and was told she is ‘fixed’, although left with scarring. This is just two weeks ago. Is it really as simple as that?

She had polio as a child so is physically disabled and exercise is out of the question but I’m concerned she will do more than she should in other ways.

Thanks for reply. Spain do have good health care, but once leaving hospital you are more or less left to do the best as you can for yourself, with the help of family. I have tried to tell her to take it easy and be careful. She asked GP how long to recover and he replied You Are Recovered.. Fingers crossed all will be well.
