Is Weakness And Tiredness Normal After Stent Replacement?

Two weeks ago I woke up to go to work and passed out 3 or 4 times and turned white and sweaty (clammy) and was admitted to the hospital where my cardiologist ended up placing a stent in my LCA, he said my heart had a small amount of damage. Seven years ago I had a stent placed in my RCA. After saying all that 2 weeks after the stent Placement I still feel weak and tired. Is this normal? PS - I have been walking every morning about 30 min and working around the house a little. (I am a 45 yr old male)

Hi,

If there is no serious damage to your heart, then you shouldn't have any complaints. But don't worry, sometimes people may have some weakness for 2—3 weeks.

Take care
