Are there different types of Angiogram's? Have breathing issues after completing the bath or walking some distance and pain in the calf muscles during walking.. this is due to stopping smoking after 40 yrs.. just 6 months ago stopped smoking.. Serum Creatinine levels are high 1.8. One cardiologist suggested to take medicines unless angiogram is compulsory, it should not be done. Another cardiologist advised to do angiogram with only 10-15ml liquid. Can someone please help me understand if there are different varieties of angiograms... if yes, doing it with less amount of liquid ensures no side effect ( affect to the kidneys etc) as the serum creatinine levels are currently high.. Currently taking medication as blood thinner etc.. Please advise..
