No. Now a days you have advanced technology to protect you. Yourinterventionalcardiologist will put a wire either through the radial artery or femoral artery. The doctor will dilate the block byinflatinga balloon and may put a stent there in the coronary vessel. It is sort of minor surgical procedure and you will be cured. So please do not worry and take expert advise. Doctors are there to help you.

What results if there is blockage in the vessel?

A blockage in the coronary artery is the most common cause of heart disease. A blockage happens when there is a build up of plaque in the inner lining of the artery. This causes the artery to become narrow or blocked. Since the coronary arteries deliver blood to the heart muscle, any blockage can have serious implications. It reduces the flow of oxygen and nutrients to the heart which may lead to heart attack and possibly death.
