What Causes Chest Pain After Undergoing Angioplasty?

My mother had undergone angioplasty in two arteries on Sept 2013. Her three arteries were 90% blocked. Now she is complaining of chest pain since 15 days. Dr had said that there will be no problem for 5 yrs. Im worried wat to do,as cost of cardio treatment is very high and can t afford further angioplasty.

Don't worry.
You should see your doctor to check whether the pain has cardiac origin. It can be simple costochondral pain.
But even it is cardiac pain, there is possibility it can be treated with medication and no further interventions.
So I advise you to see your doctor soon for preventing further complications.
