Experiences with Heart attack

I had a heart infarction and was given Metoprolol by my doctor and I had too many side effects for me to handle, but then i was given Bisoprolol by a specialist, Still have side effects that are not fun but not as bad as they were before.

metropolo and atorvastatine dont work together, they make me incredibly tired, as well as lots of muscle pains so ive stopped taking metropolo and now it's manageable again.

I've been taking this for high blood pressure since my heart attack in 2010. Started on 25 mg per day then reduced to 12.5 mg because I was getting cold hands and feet. It's a bit tricky taking it because I have to break the small 25 mg tablet in half.

Since my heart attack in I have had to take this anticoagulant. The only thing I've noticed about is that I bruise a lot more easily. But I guess that shows it's working well.

The cardiologist prescribed me perindopril after my heart attack in 2010. I've got to keep taking it. I haven't noticed what it's doing and I haven't had any side effects.

After experiencing muscle pains from taking simvastatin and atorvastatin, the cardiologist prescribed me crestor. Prescribed on 20 April and by 24 April I'm experiencing severe muscle pain in my left hand. I don't know what to do and I don't really want to hassle the cardiologist (again). BTW, I've had 2x heart attacks and 6x stents which is why I need cholesterol-lowering medicine.

I have used Furosemide and several other medicines for a few years now. When I developed an extreme rash two years back I quit most of these medicines because it was unclear which of these was the cause. Now I only use Carvedilol, Lisinopril and Furosemide. I now know it has to be Furosemide because the rash has changed into hives exactly as mentioned in the patient information leaflet. Now I h...

I had to take nobivolol after having a heart attack and stent placement. After a few weeks I noticed I had a severe case of fatigue, which I mentioned every time I went to my cardiologist for a check-up. I still had to take the meds according to protocol. After a year I changed hospitals and my new specialist told me to stop nobivolol at once. Two weeks later I felt reborn, the fatigue is all g...

Two years ago my husband had a heart attack and in January a follow-up showed that he had a blood clot in his heart and he was prescribed pradaxa for it. According to the specialist it is an expensive medicine but more user-friendly than that offered at the thrombosis centre which isn't really necessary, the result was the the blood clot has disappeared. But the quality of life disappeared alon...

After stent insertion. First two interventions ( 2 x 3 stents) had to take Brilique. Lots of side effects. Difficulty breathing and bruising. For the third intervention (8 months later) I switched to 75 mg Clopidogrel (at my request). Shortness of of breath disappeared for the most part and no more bruising since then. 7th stent inserted and I now feel a lot better.

Severe muscle pains and cramps in my back. Was seeing a physiotherapist and manual therapist to no avail. Then stopped taking atorvastatin for 2 weeks and the pain symptoms were considerably reduced. On advice from the cardiologist, re-started taking the atorvastatin (according to the cardiologist the side effects should disappear within a couple of days) but after 3 days terrible muscle pains ...

After hearing things from my peers about pravastatin sodium (negative) I stopped taking this three days ago. (temporarily?). Now I am a lot less short of breath (NOTE: if you are reducing your dose it is always advisable to do so in consultation with your treating doctor. (S)he can determine if it is worth investigating other options.)

I have previously used pantoprazole 40 mg from Teva. Worked brilliantly and I had no side-effects. The only negative point is that you have to have the tablet one hour before you eat. But she soon get used to it

After my pharmacist gave me Pensa's pantoprazole 40 mg (a cheaper tablet), previously I had had pantoprazole 40 mg from Teva (from which I had no side-effects), I had lots of side-effects. The worst one for me is constant tiredness, my total loss of taste, dry mouth and regular headaches. I wonder how much more of this I have to take. It's only been one week.

In 2007 I had a cardiac arrest and went into a coma. To start off with I took Lipitor then, with a transition period, Crestor (first 10 mg, then 20 mg). No problems during the transition. Everything was fine. Always had brilliant cholesterol.

Been taking this for about 9 years following a serious cardiac arrest and coma. Absolutely no problems. This is great stuff for me. I've just been told that I need to switch to a generic medicine. To see if it makes me ill. From an accidental patient to a guinea pig.

My cholesterol has always been excellent, bi-annual review with a specialist. In Feb. 2015 it looked like I'd had a heart attack. to me it just felt like acid reflux. The cardiologist said that the ecg was in a grey area but that he would still say it was a heart attack. Never had any medication and all of a sudden was on 7! No further explanation. I can't understand it. I am now a patient at a...

Not happy with this drug. The worst side effect for me was a paranoid feeling, as if someone was behind me all day long. Switched to another brand and now I'm fine.

After I had a stent fitted, the cardiologist told me that I need to take this for a whole year! I've experienced the following side effects. Headache, muscle cramps and pain in my joints, poor vision, obstipation and stomach pain. Anyone else had the same experiences...and how were they eventually sorted?
