Is It Safe To Travel In High Altitude With Coronary Stent?
I was checking to see about altitude and coronary stents. I have a coronary stent and we are going to take a vacation to Denver. Also wondering about how living there, I am retired female and 60 years old, would affect my heart. I had a fast heart beat and now take Toprol and Plavix.
