my brother had a stent put in about 7 or 8 years ago , no problem.

I had a 4 way bypass about 4 years ago.
you don't want the bypass if you can avoid it. they split you chest with a saw, do the operation, then to close up your chest they just use 3 or 4 wires to hold it together, thats all. it never really heals up (breastbone) and it hurts like hell for months after.
