  • 1.  Plavix noob - awful side effects

    Posted 01-11-2021 20:16
    Hi, I'm Billie, just had an ASD closure. Went well but recovery (5th day today) has been rough. I feel awful. My wost symptom, aside from the usual post surgery ground beef throat... Is the headache. Doc informed me it could be a reaction to plavix. Anyone else experience this side effect? How do you cope? I feel incapacitated by this headache.
    Thanks in advance,
    Billie

    Hi Billie,
    I've been in Plavix for almost a year with no side effects. I wish you well. Hope your headache gets better.

    Hi Billie. I had the same surgery two years ago. Your headaches may also be because of the position you were in for so long during surgery. I hope your headaches don't stay around for too long. Hang in . God bless
