Patient Testimonial
He had already been living with diabetes. Prior to seeing a doctor, he happened to take a type of herbal medicine. Later, in the middle of one night, he suddenly experienced a sensation of intense heat throughout his body and palpitations. Even after sitting down to rest, the symptoms did not subside, prompting him to decide to go to Ramkhamhaeng Hospital, which was close to his home and where he already had confidence in the care provided.
After undergoing various cardiac examinations, no abnormalities were initially found. The physicians therefore decided to proceed with coronary angiography using contrast injection. The results were extremely alarming, as they revealed severe coronary artery disease involving three vessels: the first artery was narrowed by nearly 40%, the second by 80%, and the third was completely occluded (100%).
Fortunately, he sought medical attention and was diagnosed in time, allowing the doctors to proceed with treatment using balloon angioplasty. He understood that this approach carries lower risk, does not require open surgery, and allows for rapid recovery. The procedure was highly successful, bringing great satisfaction to both him and his family. Before long, he was able to return to his normal daily life without a prolonged recovery period.
