my mom recently had 2 more stents ---she now has 6 in the right coronary artery and 1 in the left for a total of 7. Tonight she is complaining of pain in her collarbone. Yesterday she felt like she had gerd. Are these possible signs of a heart problem. Could there be a problem with a stent? Thanks, Betsy
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. No, these symptoms are not suggestive of heart problem or connected with problem in Stents. Pain in collar bone is more likely due to musculoskeletal pain. HERD is mostly due to stress or Chat Doctor.  So ask her to avoid stress and tension. Give her light food, avoid hot and spicy food. Give her proton pump inhibitors and prokinetic
