My father has been diagnosed with 70% heart wall thinning, and the doctor has recommended stenting. However, the procedure will take 15-20 days to be scheduled. Since my sister’s wedding is approaching, my father prefers to wait until after the wedding, as the procedure requires complete bed rest. In the meantime, we have consulted the doctor, who has prescribed medications and advised us to bring him in immediately if he experiences pain or discomfort. While we trust the doctor’s guidance, I am feeling anxious and would love to hear from others who have been in similar situations. Any experiences, insights, or facts that could help ease my concerns would be greatly appreciated.

I completely understand your concern. If the doctor has said it’s okay to wait with medicines, that usually means the condition is stable enough for now. The key is to make sure your father avoids exertion, eats light, and stays stress-free. Just keep a close eye on him, and if he feels chest pain, breathlessness, or dizziness, don’t delay in taking him to the hospital. Many people manage well like this until their stent procedure.
