My grandmother is was admitted 2 weeks back for heart attack and simultaneously water was also filled in her lungs and we brought her in emergency unit.. Today we had done her angiography and reports showed that all her nerves are blocked and there is no chance to perform angioplasty and bypass.. Can anyone please tell me is there any alternative treatments for cleaning those blockages

Decision of angioplasty vs CABG/ medical management can only be made after seeing a patient as a whole not just CAG report. Visit a cardiologist near by with all her reports for a second opinion as it is difficult to give any opinion without detailed history, physical and detailed CAG report
