Hello.
Having clogged arteries is common and many people with clogged arteries do very well having surgery. It depends on how clogged the arteries are and how many arteries are clogged. Often if your arteries are dangerously clogged your cardiologist would have already recommended a procedure to fix the clogs if that’s what you needed to be safe. If he or she did not recommend that, your clogs may be minor in which case surgery should be fine. Reach out to your heart doctor for the details and they will certainly be able to answer this question specific to you based on your heart.
