Mind-Body research no need for stent issue.
My son seems to have set me up with this site some years ago. It redirects to Huffington but he, son, does not usually read non empirical, non qualified stuff.

Any experience, or general thoughts on the subject?
A Controversial Experiment Upends The Conventional Wisdom On Heart Stents

I would be interested to know if there was a possibility of a psychologically triggered Vasoconstriction which could give the same symptoms.
I'm a layman, but in my 70's experienced the most extraordinary crushing pain in my chest. I was on a call to my British bank for help, but I couldn't answer a security question. 'I'm thousands of miles from my office'. Tough luck. That's when I went into total meltdown, and that's when the pain started. I dialled 999, but they said I didn't follow the high risk profile.
I'd always said I'd never cower in A&E but go running on the beach. This I did but now my performance was way down. Running up a 60' pathway to the cliff-top beat me. I didn't want to live as an invalid so pressed on to the top. I did it again the next day, and the next. Soon I was back to normal.
Back then I had a heart monitor fitted SASPO, but it showed little. The GP cited rage as the culprit. Blood flow was mentioned.
This seemed illogical. Fight or flight. Not much use if your blood is suddenly restricted.
As a by-the-way, after decades of reading in, I've concluded that classical migraine is caused by urgent 'dilator' chemistry - following an initial deep-rooted psychological clamping of blood vessels in the brain.
With the original issue, it wouldn't surprise me to find a certain group of people 'clamp off' supplies due to perceived danger or stress. Again, I'm a layman, but I've been curious about this exact question for many, many years. It wouldn't surprise me at all to find some highly counterproductive mechanism in major vessels around the heart that would open up, not with a stent, but with the right chemistry.
