| 2 | Heart attack and two stents | I have already written here mostly about the horrible early side effects of Brilanta Ticagrelor. I did not think i could stay on them because of the bleeding, migrains, breathing problems, anxiety, joint pain, chest pain etc. There are many and when you read the pamphlet or go to their site it says call your doctor if you have many of them but three trips to the ER and numerous calls to the doctor and Cardiologist and they know but just want you to stay on them and prescribe more pills to ease the effects. I thought the anxiety i was getting was a reaction from having a heart attack but now i see at 9 months the anxiety became constant, aches and pains like statins, trouble sleeping and harsh mood swings from tired to full blown anger in minutes. Also sore breasts and the numbing of legs and arms. | I know of people that had bare metal stents and were on brilanta or plavix for a short time (3months?). Most of us get the new! drug eluding stents plus put on the anti platelets for 1yr to life. What is wrong with this picture! I go off Brilanta in a few days but it has been hell. | F | 67 | 9 months 90 mg x2 d 2X day | 12/27/2020 | 1 | Stent | Muscle pain and rapid heartbeat | F | 65 | 0 weeks 90 2X day | 12/10/2020 | 1 | Heart attack and two stents | Side effects in first few months were horrendous and until the other drugs were stopped it was hard to pinpoint ticagrelor. Horrible shortness of breath, pain in joints, bleading gums, nose bleeds, migrains at night, stomach pain, diarhea, extreme anxiousness, numbing and tingling in face, arms and legs. I still have side effects although they have lessened in intensity it is still rough. | I haven't taken meds before this but now i truly wonder how these meds pass safety testing. I did not want another heart because i went through hell with my first one. I do feel like many and that is i am poisoning myself daily with ticagrelor and have aged 10 yrs in 8 months. | F | 67 | 8 months 90 mg x2 d 2X day | 12/4/2020 | 3 | Double Bypass | Shortness of breath, hoarseness with throat clearing, anxiety and bruising. | M | 77 | 90 days 90 2X day | 12/1/2020 | 2 | CABG - Double Bypass | SOB, hoarseness accompanied by throat clearing. | M | 77 | 3 months 90 2X day | 11/22/2020 | 5 | ACS | Didn't feel this bad ever with all my heart problems | What else is there besides this med? | F | 67 | 0 days 90mg 2/dai 2X day | 9/29/2020 | 1 | 3 stents in heart | blue skin rash subcutaneous tender nodules | very costly in india | F | 64 | 90 days 45 2X day | 9/8/2020 | 1 | Widow maker heart attack 2 Stents | Feel weak, tired, anxiety and extreme short of breath all the time, can’t sleep, dizzy, anxious, depressed. Yeah these are all symptoms after major heart attack CAUSE of all these pharmaceuticals. | Was told before even getting off Cath table that I’d need Brilinta for the rest of my life, told several times again while in hospital. THIS DRUG IS A TOP KICK BACK DRUG! All about the $ There’s no $ in healthy people. Wish the freakin attack would’ve killed me. Than feel like crap from all the drugs | M | 40 | 7 weeks 90 2X day | 9/4/2020 | 1 | After 3 stents | Dysapnia , Anxiety, Insomnia | The worst medications to give to sombody with GAD and Social Anxiety. Unf cardiologist don't care about mental health. The worst three month of my entire life. Couldn't fall asleep, stay asleep or would wake up at 2 Am feeling like it's a morning. Constant anxiety day and night. After doctor put me on Plavix all symptoms stoped within a day. | F | 60 | 90 days 90 mg 2X day | 8/28/2020 | 1 | Had stents put in | Very shortness of breath. No sleep passed out in my living room. Put me on plavix. Feel fine now | M | 72 | 2 months 90 2X day | 8/8/2020 | 5 | Heart attack with stent placement | No adverse side effects | Started on 90mg for 18months then after continued with 60mg | M | 60 | 3 years 90/60 2X day | 8/2/2020 | 1 | Angioplasty | Severe anxiety Shortness of breath Claustrophobic | Thought I was going crazy.. so anxious and unable to walk up flight of stairs or do any activity without gasping for air. Felt so nervous in small second bathroom.. symptoms began immediately after starting this drug | F | 66 | 11 days 30 mg 2X day | 7/28/2020 | 1 | Stent placements (4) | This is poison...you cannot go to sleep because the second you doze off you awake with the horror of not being able to breath. Shortness of breath is one thing, completely shutting down the autonomic breathing center in your brain is another entirely. Its like permanent COPD attacks every single time you doze off. Anxiety attacks are horrendous and legendary. Gee, the PERFECT drug to give someone who just had a heart attack....who you want to KILL. | Should be taken off the market. It's horrendously overpriced at $400 a month for a typical dosage. Causes total lack of ability to sleep if taken twice daily. Promotes anxiety attacks that I GUARANTEE have resulted in as many middle of the night non-essential panic calls to EMTs AS actual MCI incidents. Who ARE the SOBs who profit from putting this kind of nightmare drug into the cardiac care industry? | M | 66 | 3 days 90 MG 2X day | 7/14/2020 | 1 | After stint placement | Short of breath, severe lower back pain, bruising, horrible anxiety attacks | F | 85 | 4 months | 6/25/2020 | 1 | Had stents put in | Cant sleep since I started taking it can not breath anxiety feel cholsiphobic | A very bad drug | M | 54 | 16 days 90 | 6/19/2020 | 1 | Stemi LAD | SOB. coughing until I vomited.
