Hi, about a week ago I had my third heart event, 10, 14. and again last Saturday.. all three times I required stents.. this last time was due to one of the previous stents becoming blocked, causing most of my heart to shut down.. I was told by my Cardiologist that everything is now flowing well.. I m abstaining from full on sex with my wife, but I m curious if masturbation is a good idea so soon after surgery.. ?.. I am a 58 yr old male, approx 5 10 , 240 lb.
