It wasn’t the 70% blockage that scared him. It was the silence in the doctor’s tone when he said, “You could wait. But it’s risky.” That’s where the majority of patients reside, in the middle zone. Not in surgery. Not in crisis. Just living and breathing and working … with a time bomb ticking away inside. Dr. Bimal Chhajer and SAAOL Heartcare Delhi see many patients who want to choose a safer path- non-surgical heart treatment or a non-invasive heart care solution- a way where they can reverse their heart disease without surgery, and can have EECP treatment in Delhi/NCR. Because sometimes, doing nothing is the worst decision of all. And here’s the strange part —When it’s in danger, the body doesn’t always scream. It whispers. It’s the second time you need to pause mid-stairs. The late-night acidity that feels a little too central. The Sunday morning walk leaves you a little more breathless than last week. You tell yourself it’s stress. Age. Weight. Weather. You delay action. But the plaque that is getting stored in your heart doesn’t wait. It just keeps getting bigger — quietly, methodically.
One day, “just 70%” turns into “emergency surgery,” or worse, a moment nobody saw coming. That’s the reason this conversation is important — not for shock, but for your power to choose better.
What Does a 70% Heart Blockage Diagnosis Mean?
70% heart blockage means that the inner diameter of the heart artery is narrowed due to fatty deposits (atherosclerosis), reducing blood flow. But few people seem to realize that you can have a 70% blockage and zero symptoms. Or you can have a 40% blockage that bursts and results in a heart attack.
Yes, you read that right.
Heart attacks typically occur at the location of moderate blockage, at the spot that’s deemed “not severe.” Why? Because they’re unstable. They rupture. A clot forms. And that blood clot blocks the artery entirely in seconds. That is how most heart attacks occur, not because your report read 90% blockage, but because no one told you the risk that your plaque is unstable.
And that’s the buzz nobody tells you. The blockage ratio is only part of the story.
Why Doing “Nothing” Is Not a Neutral Choice
Let’s imagine you do nothing. You turn your back on that 70% heart blockage diagnosis because you feel fine. You take a pill now and then; you skip those stress tests and reassure yourself with the words “I’ll take care of it if something happens.” But what may be happening inside your body is quite different:
- Your plaque quietly grows. Atherosclerosis is progressive. It doesn’t pause because you want it to.
- Inflammation builds up. Stress, poor food, smoking, and diabetes quietly trigger your immune system to attack the plaque.
- The plaque ruptures. Think of it like a small zit bursting in your artery. Blood reacts. Clots form.
- And suddenly, 70% becomes 100%.
More than 30% of first heart attacks are fatal, particularly if the person does nothing.
When Do You Need Bypass Surgery?
Most patients, once they hear “70% heart blockage,” are rushed on to angioplasty or bypass surgery. It seems the only “serious” way to go. But at SAAOL Heartcare Delhi, we have seen patients who have avoided undergoing these procedures altogether.
Because not every blockage is dangerous right away.
You only need invasive intervention if:
- You’re in the middle of a heart attack
- You have severe angina that doesn’t improve with medication
- Your ejection fraction (EF) is dangerously low and getting worse
- All non-invasive options have failed
If that’s not you, surgery can wait. Or better yet, never be needed at all.
The Non-Invasive Route: How EECP Treatment in Delhi/NCR Helps
Presuming you are not thrilled with the idea of surgery. So what’s next? That’s where EECP (Enhanced External Counter Pulsation) comes into the picture. And it is the non-surgical treatment for heart disease that is rocking the world of heart health.
How does EECP work?
- You lie on a sort of specialized bed with cuffs on your legs.
- These cuffs pump up and down in rhythm with your heartbeat
- This helps your circulation, creates new natural bypasses, and strengthens your heart muscle
It’s FDA-approved, entirely painless, and requires no hospitalization. And the results? In a majority of patients, angina goes away, walking tolerance improves, and EF (ejection fraction) rises, without stents or bypasses.
Why SAAOL Says You Can Reverse Heart Disease Without Surgery?
This is not theory. It’s a clinical reality. When people come to us with 70% or 90% blockages, we put them on our heart disease reversal program:
- EECP
- Zero-oil heart-friendly diet
- Advanced medication
- Yoga, meditation, stress control
- Personalised treatment
And the results?
- Blockages reduce over time
- Blood flow improves
- Heart function strengthens
No surgery. No scars. Just science and lifestyle medicine.
Indeed, the majority of our patients do not enter the operating room upon entering this program. Most will report better energy, better sleep, and no angina through 6 months and after.
“But What If I’m Feeling Okay Right Now?”
That’s the worst part of heart disease is that it’s the silent killer. You can feel like absolutely nothing with a 70% heart blockage today. But keep in mind, your heart does not give a warning when an attack is coming. The plaque builds quietly. One trigger—stress, infection, alcohol, and a rupture can occur. Doing nothing today might cost everything tomorrow.
Frequently Asked Questions: Living With 70% Heart Blockage and EECP Treatment
Q: Can a 70% blockage heal naturally?
A: Yes, it can heal. Through lifestyle modifications, EECP, and medication, the plaque can also gradually diminish in size and severity. Studies have proven reversal is possible.
Q: Is it safe to delay surgery?
A: Only if you’re stable. If you’re not in an emergency, a second opinion is smart. No need to jump right into the OT if your body isn’t crashing.
Q: How long can you live with a 70% blockage?
A: That depends on what you do about it. Some live decades with it if they treat the cause. Others don’t get a second chance if they ignore it. Your outcome depends on your action, not the number.
You Have 3 Choices After a 70% Heart Blockage Diagnosis
- Rush to the OT out of fear. Get a stent. Live on medication for life with the possibility of re-blockage.
- Do nothing. Ignore it. Pray nothing happens. That’s dangerous.
- Take the reversal route. Address the root cause. Avoid bypass surgery. Take control.
