My son called today. And asked how long ago it was when i had my bypass done. I told him April will be 7 years. That August i had to have one of the bypass's stented due to collapse. He said someone told him you only live up to 10 years after. And this has him worried. I was 48 when i had it done. I told him that average is probably for older folks who had it done. Am i right on that? Or is there truth in the 10 year average?
