Five years ago I had quadruple by pass surgery. Did not know that 2 did not take until last year.

Three years later I had angioplasty and one year later had stents. Last year had cath but the doctor told me he could not do anything else for me that the arteries were so small that the blockages was so far down that he could not get to them. Last week, I had angioplasty again. Had blockages around the stents, doctor tells me this will go on the rest of my life since I block up so fast. This has not been good because I still cannot breath and have trouble with my right leg and arm. I am not overweight and exercise all the time. I have never smoked. Did not have a heart attack, just cannot breathe.
