   Stent's if suitable is the way to go as it is a simple (for the patient) and   
   you can go home the same day with only a hour or so recovery to check that all   
   is well.   
      
   For mine is was inserted near the groin but these days they have started using   
   the arm and you can watch the whole process in a monitor but mine was a black   
   and white job so harder to work it out so not bored and had a quick cat nap.   
   You can ask for a relaxant jab if you want but it will be very mild as they   
   want you awake  - mostly to report any pain.   
      
   I currently have 3 + 4 - yep seven but if I ever need fixes for the heart I    
   was   
   informed it would be open surgery which I would prefer to avoid if there is a   
   choice what with suffering from a problem back for many years.   
      
   Stent's is usually backed up with taking a blood thinner such as Clopidigrel   
   75mg daily - just have to avoid getting a cut and remember to go off it 3 days   
   before any surgery - you tend to have an issue with blood clotting for a cut   
   etc - so a issue for any surgery.  The drug (I have been told in the past) for   
   reversing the effect has its own problems that is best avoided.   
   Going to the dentist I go off it a clean two days before but do not bother for   
   covid jabs as that is goes straight into mussel
