What Tests Should Be Done After An Angioplasty?

I have undergone angioplasty 4 years back. I am regularly taking the prescribed medicines( CLOPIGREL 75, AZTOR EZ & LOPRENE DS) and aviod any items like cheeze, butter, oil and other fatty foods. I dont get time for excecises, though i am doing it whenever i get time. Now i want to know, weather every thing is all right inside my heart? How I will know, that there is no risk now? sometimes it upsets me and i go under tension.

ok. i would suggest you undergo 2D echo just to check for the performance of your heart. with the 2d echo, we'll see the ejection fraction which reflects the function of your heart as well as other important parameters. if there is any abnormality which may suggest Left ventricular dysfunction, i would suggest you undergo a repeat coronary angiogram.
