CABG is a safe procedure and is the most common cardiac surgery performed worldwide. Yes it has a risk of around 1% but not undergoing CABG while it has been advised puts the individual to having a 100% risk of heart attacks and even sudden cardiac death following exertion. So choose wisely. Best wishes.
