thank you.
restenosis may occur after a period of stenting.
but only the pain is not enough to indicate a ischemic disease.
ECG,ETT & sometimes angiogram is needed to confirm the diagnosis.
if these are alright then you need not to worry for the pain.
please remove your anxiety from your mind because it will be harmful for you.
take treatment for the muscular pain.
take care.
