I have had a couple of heart issues in the past. I have four stents, two from the first heart attack and then another two (one restenosis) last January. In the four years between event one and two my total cholesterol was usually below 100 ( controlled by meds), my BP is normal (also meds), and I had a reasonable exercise program. After the second stents the surgeon said outright that he would see me again in a few years for a bypass. Well, I am trying to avoid that and one route is cycling as a new form of exercise for me. My current cardiologist has not changed anything since my second event and he also seems to think it is likely that my genetics are such that another event is probable.
Well, I would like to think that I will not be laying on the table or the ground again and I would like to find a cycling cardiologist who might offer at least a second opinion and perhaps a different take on what I can or can't do ...
Anyone know of a cycling cardiologist?
Thanks
