đźš« Myth 1: Bypass Surgery Means Your Heart Is Replaced
✅ Fact: We don’t remove your heart! We just reroute blood flow around the blocked arteries—like building a flyover on a traffic-jammed road.
đź«Ł Myth 2: After Bypass, Life Is Over!
✅ Fact: It’s actually a new beginning! Most patients walk the next day and go home in a week. Many return to full-time work within a month!
🍔 Myth 3: You Can Eat Anything After Bypass
âś… Fact: Surgery fixes plumbing, not lifestyle! A healthy diet and regular walks keep that bypass working for decades.
💊 Myth 4: I’ll Be Dependent on Dozens of Medicines Forever
âś… Fact: Most patients are on only a few essential medicines. Over time, with good control, many are reduced.
🛌 Myth 5: Bypass Means Bedrest for Life
✅ Fact: Absolutely not! We want you to move. Sitting is the new smoking—walk, breathe, live.
🧓 Myth 6: I’m Too Old for Bypass
✅ Fact: Age is not the main factor—your overall fitness and heart condition matter more. I’ve operated on 80+ year-olds who recovered beautifully.
