My husband has very narrow and thin walled arteries. He had a stroke due to a tear and a blood clot in his right corotid artery when he was 34. When he was 40, he had a massive heart attack with a 90% blockage on one side and a 80% blockage on the other. He ended up with a quad. He quit smoking for about 2 weeks after the surgery, but he started back up again. He was told by his cardiologist, that he had about an 80% blockage in a major artery in his left shoulder that would need to be addressed in the future. My husband gets frequent dizzy spells, nausea, and he gets regular chest pains. His emotions are extremely random and he is hard to read. He started drinking again after the surgery and he quit his Plavix, Metaprolol, and another Rx , I cannot recall. I am extremely worried. He refuses to exercise or do anything for his health. He told me last night that he knows in his gut-instinct that he will be dead soon. HELP! I am trying to intervene, but he doesn t want to be proactive and get the other surgery or check back with his surgeon or stop smoking!
