Hi There

After going through your query I understand your concern.

I would like to tell you that Left Main Ostial is a point of major concern in itself. Generally Left main disease is to be corrected by open heart surgery rest depends on the condition.

If your thallium test was positive for moderate blockage and now you have developed symptoms then you should personally consult with your cardiologist and get a evaluation done. You may require an angiography for a proper evaluation of the evaluation.

Hopefully this will answer your query.

Kind Regards
Dr. Navneet Mahajan
