During angiagram, doctor commented on how clear and unplugged my 
existing stents were.  1 stent 13 years old, the other 2,  8 years old. 
  Maybe I should name them ;-).  I'm now on plavix for at least a year. 
  He also commented that the previously diagnosed "63%" blockage was no 
where near that bad and did not need action.
