Crikey, how are you feeling?as someone who has a stent fitted in LAD recently and now is a bit concerned after seeing this, are there any symptoms that you had that could be things to help others look out for.

How did the doctors find out , was the procedure complicated and what's a drug diluted stent?

sorry for all the questions but didn't realise this could happen

Had no symptoms for 10 months then got pains in between shoulder blades that prevented me walking. I was walking miles before this. After some checks said stent was blocked again put in drug diluted stent which releases medication to stop blood clots. In theatre for 30min See how it goes no guarantees Hope this helps.
