Stent in trunk coronary artery

Hi - has anyone had a blockage in this artery? I was in Spain when I had my HA and the Cardiologist tried to explain but the language barrier got in the way.

The final report was in Spanish too.

Hello :-)

I am sorry to read what you have been through and not helpful that everything is in Spanish

I have no experience on this but I would speak with my Doctor they should have a way of finding out what it all means as well as if you are not already they may refer you to a Consultant here

Let us know how you get on :-) x

Hi, sorry this happened to you whilst abroad. Normally when something this serious happens abroad your GP should get you referred to Cardiology almost immediately for follow up. Hope you get the answers you require.

The slightest twinge and you need to get to A & E, this way you will be thoroughly checked over xx

If you take a photo of the report your phone will almost certainly have an app called Google Lens. If you open the pic in lens it will offer a translate function.

I agree though, see your own doctor.
