Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about these findings and all the inconvenience this must have caused you.

I will recommend that you provide the complete result report for a detailed appraisal.
Interventions on these depend on the symptoms and the degree of narrowing. I will recommend that you ask your doctor directly whether he would be following up n this or not depending on the degree of narrowing.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications. Thanks for trusting using with your health questions today!
