since stopping ticagrelor after my 12 months post heart attack I cannot believe the difference in my breathing. It was dreadful and I didn’t want to think that’s as good as it going to get . But so much better! It’s absolutely marvellous!

I didn’t have a clue that it’s a side effect of taking the drug,well it can be . So onwards and upwards hopefully. First heart attack resulted in triple by pass then stents then second funny Turn ended up a stent repair with a balloon . Here’s hoping it’s all fixed .

That's great news to read, Marvin. I just stopped Clopidogrel and Lansoprazole last Friday a year and a couple of months after a HA & triple bypass so am waiting to see if I feel any different in the weeks to come! Fingers crossed for a fast and full recovery and that you'll feel even better every day. Carol
