I had 2 stents placed on March 28, 2024 and I do have more energy and I do feel better. That said, it was not a huge difference. I have more energy than I had before the stents but I still tire easily. It did help me with shortness of breath but again it wasn't a huge difference.

Hi Thomas
I received 5 stints when I had my heart attack yes It does help your breathing after speaking for myself

When I had 1 stent put in 20+ years ago, relief from the shortness of breath. At the time while waiting for the stent to put be put in, was on heparin drip / IV which provided temp relief while hospitalized.
