Discussion: Stents

Recently had 6 stents implanted and looking for inputs from whomever has stents, whether able to successfully return to playing, and how long before you were able to return. Also what, if any, precautions you took. Thanks for any feedback that is provided.
I think it might be better to ask your doctor this question.Just for your information I had three stents put in 18 years ago and I’m still trying to play ball.Good luck and stay healthy.
Thanks for the response. I have appointment with doctor to discuss this with him. I was just looking for input from those who may have had stents and their experience about getting back on the field. Your input is appreciated.
I had two stents implanted about 15 years ago. I played in a tournament three weeks later and have been playing ever since. The doc's only concern was that the incision in my groin be properly healed before I exerted myself. Now I was lucky in that they found my blockage before I had a heart attack. I am sure the path would have been different had I had a cardiac event before the stents
