Good evening, I have an angina in chest and they implanted two stents a year and two months ago.I am type 2 diabetic. I do sports or I am every day and I am thin.I have cared little during my life and smoked a lot.I am somewhat younger than your father, but I do recommend that you walk and do sports without any exhaustion, and once you recover your forces.A bypass is not the same as a stent.Your father is slower.My father has 3 stent and a valve.He began to walk and be proactive little by little.He is currently 85 years old and Pilates does 2 times a week, but always remembers without squeezing and when he recovers.Doctors can help you a lot to mark safe guidelines.Greetings.

It is important that blood glucose is in normal values ​​for healing.
I suppose the insulin will be basal, put it in the buttock, you will not see the needle and it is the best place for the basal.Do not leave metformin, is what regulates meals.
Try Mediterranean diet and reduce rice hydrates, pasta, potatoes, bread ... and fats.These foods rise glycemia and take a long time to disappear.

Exercise helps a lot to control blood glucose.As this convalescent and walking will cost you a lot, you can try some 0.5 or 1kg dumbbellhouse and then little by little on the street.

And most importantly: a lot of patience.The men are very complaints 😀 and very bad patients.My father with 77 is a continuous desperate fight for everything.
