Side effect?

Anyone experiencing post-angioplasty coughing to the point of coughing blood?

My hubby had 3 stents about three weeks ago, having already had one last November.

Sods law dictates that this will happen at the weekend, so thought I'd ask here before we get chance to consult the Dr tomorrow.

Hope lots of you are improving out there. Thanks chums 👍

Stenting runs through the arteries, and has nothing to do with the airways/lungs. If he's coughing blood, he needs to go to an A&E NOW.

As for the coughing is he on Ramipril by any chance? Random, dry coughs are a common side effect and annoyed the hell out of me.

Not what you're looking for?
