Hi everyone

Im now 18months post stent.

Over the last 4 days, both my arms have been aching from my arm pits down to my wrists.

I,m on bisoperol, clopidogoral, statins and metazapine.

Wondered if anyone else has experienced this.

It could be a lot of different things, but best to speak to your doctor to rule out heart or medication issues.

i have painful musles in my legs caused i think by statins. Maybe they have affected your arms. I gave up statins for a month (with docs agreement) to see if it made a difference - which it did. So i changed the statin.
