Question:

Answers:
Geez, you need to ask your cardiologist about this. What is your ejection fraction? What is the cause of the blockage? What is your current activity level? I am sure he will tell you that you need to have a stress test if you haven't had one already.

On the other hand, if it is safe to exercise at all, the *best* place to start is with a cardiac rehabilitation program run by a hospital. If you live in or near a major city, there is certainly at least one such program in your, and maybe several. Ask your doctor.

Cardiac rehab has you exercise--on a treadmill for example--while you are connected (wirelessly) to a heart monitor that is watched by a nurse. The nurse can tell immediately if you even start to get into trouble. I cannot emphasize how much confidence it gave me after heart surgery. I was so nervous at first about going out to walk on my own. But this way, I could push myself a little without any worry. If I had a problem, they would see it probably even before I felt it. And if something really bad happened, I was right there in the hospital.

Most insurance will pay for the cost of cardiac rehab, usually with a time limit of 3 months (assuming 3 visits per week). It saved my life, and I'm sure that if you can exercise at all, this is the best way to get your life back. Best of luck!!

I presume you are talking about the arteries to your heart, in which case it is imperative that you consult a doctor and YES its would be better for you not to undertake strenuous exercise and other activities that might put you under stress.
