Heart Medication. - Hello! My Father Had A Triple Bypass Surgery

Heart medication.

Asked for Male, 60 Years

Hello! My father had a triple bypass surgery about 4 years ago. He’s in pretty good health but he just recently got remarried and his new wife is totally against big pharma so she made him stop taking all his heart medications. Which I think are some blood thinning pills and high blood pressure cholesterol pills. The doctors told him to take them for the rest of his life I’m pretty sure. He hasn’t taken them for three months. Could you tell me what could possibly happen if he doesn’t take them?
