Hi,
Welcome.
This is Dr Sameer.
Bypass surgery has good success rate & is considered betrer than angioplasty. So their is absolutely nothing to worry.
I did not find any attachment with your message. So please try again. So i can not tell you within how much time it should be done.
Bypass is done very commonly in India in all major hospitals with cardiology setup. Discharge takes around 4-7 days depending on patients progress.
In India it costs between 2 to 3 lakhs.
Thanks
