Diagnosed with 100% RCA blockage in Angiogram at a private hospital in Bangalore. I was having pain in heart while walking for some distance after food. I am not having any pain if walking empty stomach. I don't have much faith on Angiogram CD given by hospital. Is there any other way, than Angiogram, which can confirm if Angiogram CD is correct?

Yes you can check the viability of your heart muscles as well as the supply of those muscles buy a stress thallium test which will tell you if there is any significant blockage of blood supply in any part of the heart muscle and also tell you if there is any permanent Irreversible damage and if there is any benefit of opening that block or not
