He will undergo an angioplasty procedure Wednesday with stents also being placed as surgeons try to unblock his coronary arteries.
Speaking exclusively from his hospital bed with RadarOnline.com, Lohan said: “The surgeons are hoping this will work but if it does not then I may well have to get an immediate by-pass operation.
“This is all down to stress and living a certain lifestyle when I was young stockbroker in New York.
“The recent court case with my ex-fiancee Erin Mueller has also caused me a lot of stress too recently as I just wanted to settle the whole thing and for us both to move on with our lives.
