You and your healthcare team should discuss the pros and cons of each treatment to decide which is best for you. For most people, first steps include medicines and lifestyle changes. If those don't work for you, angioplasty and stenting may be another option.
Talk with your healthcare professional if you think your treatment isn't controlling your angina well enough.
