Dear lybrate-user ji
I must congratulate you on the patience and perseverance that you and your family have shown to your grandfather. The medicines will continue since he is predisposed to stroke. I would request you to have a consultation with your treating doctor and ask for his advice. That would be better.

HI . Sorry to hear about your problem. It is good that you are feeling well after the stent. Please do not stop any medications till you speak to your cardiologist. You may be able to come off some of the medicines but you will have to be on others for life. These medications will be continued to prevent your risk of developing new blockages.
