3 | Aneurysm coiling, 2 stents | Bruising in out of control. I take a 1/2 tab Q4D and 325 mg QD of Asp. I am low energy most of the time, I actually don’t know if it’s helping or not, I guess it is, can’t see in my brain, but needed a second stent in March. So I’m definitely not forming any clots in my brain! But I do know my bruises are awful and they last for weeks, so I know I’m not healing as I should, a small cut will take weeks to heal also. Can’t wait to be off this stuff! | F | 57 | 11 months 37.5 1X O | 7/27/2022 | 3 | STEMI; 1 stent placed | M | 71 | 6 months 75mg 1X day | 4/5/2022 Patient History | 3 | After heart surgery | Very strange dreams.

Two days after starting Plavix I had no leg cramps and very little tingling. Occasionally I feel like something in my legs is trying to get out, but that is not as severe as it was. Also have been in 8 wks of PT and increased my walking distance from about 50 feet to 1/3 of a mile yesterday. Trying to prevent having stents put in legs. Also started wearing mild compression stockings. All seems to be working well so far. | 81 | 3 days 75 1X day | 12/17/2021 | 2 | Stent fitted for 99% LAD blockage | Dizziness, heart palpitations and excruciating stomach cramping | In August 21, had a stent fitted due to LAD blockage, was put on Ticagrelor at time which I tolerated very well. My Consultant changed me to Clopidogrel 4 days ago... ( due to a clot being seen on MRI heart scan in October ) Experienced side effects on first day... abdominal cramps and palpitations... On 4th day now... feel dizzy... and getting heart palpitations when laying down...

Lord God almighty, is this how I am to live my life!? I have no interest in hobbies, I want to sleep, couch or bedridden most of the time. Is it Plavix or Xarelto?

ASKED QUACK THAT TO PUT ME ON THIS INSTEAD OF BRILLINTA WHICH WAS WORSE. USING WITH 81 MG ASPIRIN. WISHED I NEVER RECEIVED STENT. AS AN RN , I KNOW THEY USUALLY DON'T WORK , AND BIG $ FOR DOC. LIKE A FACTORY. I USED TUMERIC, OMEGA FISH OIL, GINGER AND MILK THISTLE TO LOWER CHOLESTEROL AND THIN BLOOD. IN ADDITION EAT WILD SALMON, GRASS FED MEAT AND VEGETABLES. SMOOTHIE W SPINACH, PUNEAPPLE, GINGER , FLAX SEED. I'M OVER THIS GARBAGE. | I'M SICK TO DEATH OF DRS BEING IGNORANT OF THESE DANGEROUS DRUGS. WE ALL ALL MADE DIFFERENT BY GOD, AND NEED A DR THAT HAS A GENUINE CINCERN FOR ME AND NOT HIS BANK ACCOUNT. | F | 60 | 0 weeks 75MG 1X day | 9/5/2021 | 1 | MI | Chronic gastrointestinal problems Fatigue Low mood. | 2 months to go before I stop taking this drug and It can not come quick enough.

I told my doctor something had to give, after 30 days on this toxic chemical I wished I had died of the heart attack. Luckily, my doctor listened and changed me to the anti-coagulant Effient. I'm a different man. All the symptoms are all but gone. If you're sensitive to medication keep insisting on trying other drugs until your doctor finds one that works, rather than just suffering. | M | 70 | 30 days 20 1X day | 8/15/2021 | 1 | Stents for May Thurner syndrome | Just constipation so tired.
