my aunt just had a heart attack and had three stents to remove blockage.  After almost a weeks, she was swollen and shes not able to lift her arms.  She has sensation on her arms and back but she cant move.  We were told she probably has heart damaged but Im not sure to what extend.  What should we expect?
Hi . Thanks for choosing us for health query. Your aunt had triple vessel disease had stunting but has swelling of arms, is it? Which approach she had radial approach ? Or a femoral approach? If she had a radial approach that should be a temporary phenomenon because of the procedure and usually settle of. Second is a rare one severe acute cardiac failure . She needs to take up cardiologist opinion and act further on. Hope our feedback helps. Take care
