That's understandable. A lot depends on how much if any damage your heart sustained. I had 4 stints installed and no surgery.
I don't know many Dr.s are avid hunters or shooters, so that would affect their opinions about shooting. I'd think you'd have to limit your physical exertion. I don't play dr. cause I ain't one.
As for as rifles are concerned "IMO" a reasonable recoil might be ok.
I think physical exertion would be a greater concern.
Get back to us after seeing the Dr.
