Persistent Dizziness after Angioplasty

by maurif16, May 13, 2008 09:20AM
Hi,

My dad has undergone Angioplasty after having being detected that the artery was 100% blocked. He has the stent(medicated) placed in the artery. its been a week now that he has been operated but whenever he does something which involves even a small amount of energy involved (taking a bath, speaking for 30 mins etc), he starts sweating. Also the throat goes dry..overall he feels restless.
Can u please let me know the reason for the same.
FYI my dad is diebetic and has High BP also.

Thanks in advance.......

It is not possible to answer your questions just based on symptoms and a limited medical history.  It is possible there is restenosis (blockage) of stent implant.  Adverse reaction to medication and diabetes may have an effect. But high blood pressure almost always has no symptoms.

Does the interventional cardiologist have an opinion?  Does the doctor that has the medical history and treatment for diabetes and high blood pressure have an opinion?  If you haven't talked to your dad's doctors, your dad should contact docs to be evaluated and tested for any number of diffferent possibilities.
