My uncle had a heartattack a week ago, and went in 6 days later with a code blue called. He is surviving off of one artery which is significantly blocked and has 3 stents in it. He had a heart attack 20 years ago and had 5 bypasses. The dr says that he can't/wont opperate on his heart because it is too weak. He's been in ICU for 4 days now, off of O2 now and they are keeping him stable with meds. What are his options? pacemaker? I know hes not a canidate for a heart transplant. I feel that the medical team his done a poor job explaining everything to the family and I don't know what kind of questions to ask. Any help or tips would be appreciated.
