Is there an alternative to plavix?

The worst part is the varieties of pain as well as numbness in the wrist/hand and leg from the incisions. The surgeon must have cut into the nerves and tendons. There was very little pain in my chest from the operation. The only time I felt chest pain is when coughing or sneezing.

I threw my television out in 2019 , I bought my TV in 2014 but I didn't use it much since I was in college.

It's been less than 2 months since I had open heart surgery in which my Ascending aorta and aortic valve were replaced. My surgery was on 3/29 and I went home on April 1st (less than 4 days in hospital). 9 days after surgery I walked my first mile outside. I'm currently up to 5 miles a day at 4 mph. It took about 5 weeks to get back to the speed I was walking at prior to surgery. 14 days after surgery I was allowed to drive again. I currently only have a weight restriction of 15lbs till 12 weeks have passed (each surgeon has different timeframes on that one).

I ask myself the same question all the time. I wish television would start to show a lot more positive news and movies. Maybe the good old days weren’t perfect but, I know there was a lot more joy, respect, and compassion for others. Loved your video. Have a wonderful day. Thank you

Hi Doctor, my EF percentage is 74%. Is it normal? I m not having any other symptoms.

You forgot about the mental support that is just as important, every person is different but the need to support the patient mental needs is critical to recovery, you will have questions and you will have fears and you will need to talk to someone.

Thank you this is bringing new light to my situation.

Best info available. Thanks.

First time seeing a clear explanation on AFib. Sad nobody can pinpoint the causes

My husband had a quintuple bypass 4 month ago and he says his leg where they harvested the vein still hurts a lot. He said there’s a burning feeling sometimes.

I really appreciated your sincere, unscripted remarks. You spoke from the "heart". I am heading in for my open heart aortic valve replacement in a few days, so I am watching a lot of videos, and I liked yours the best because you answered my questions as if we were just chatting in your office. I am 60, male, great health, and a construction worker. I hope to be one of those bouncing back in a couple of weeks! Thank you for your wonderful work and all the lives you save and improve. God bless you.

I just found out I need open heart bypass surgery I'm scared of dying, I'm 63 and this is mind blowing, 😢

Sir i am bilal from pakistan last year .I had a heart attack, I went to the hospital, I had an angiography and it was found that I will have heart surgery, a vein was removed from my right leg and three veins were inserted. Now I am told that my heart EF is 35% and normal. Yes, I have a question, doctor, please guide me that my EF will increase, I am 43 years old, is it possible or can I live a normal life if my EF remains as it is?

I have a fib and was diagnosed in 2018 with an EF of 42% after after 7 months of attacks of over 11 of them afib attacks my heart now works at 30% from the actor echo Scan they did on it I'm very scared now on borrowed time

You will only heal at the speed your body allows you to...There are no short cuts with a sternotomy!

Took about 18 months for me to recover. Widow maker and 2 other arteries were from 75% to 90% blocked with other little blocks in other places. Was getting weaker and weaker and could not breathe good. I had to have triple bypass and did not feel right for about this 18 month length of time. Did not even get my confidence back for about 6 to 9 months. EF went up from 30% up to 45% in this length of time as the heart cells that were dormant and starved for blood came back to life again and then I started to feel like a human again. I could breathe and sleep without being propped up on 2 or 3 pillows again. Now I have to keep my EF from going down again with 4 to 5 different drugs and keep busy walking, working at my hobbies or something, going shopping at places like Walmart and watch my eating and salt as much as possible. Fingers crossed and hope to see another 10 years, but whatever it is Im going to relish every minute of the time I got left.!

Do not forget the psychological recovery! This can be more of an issue than the physical recovery.

Im 41, I had my first heart attack at 24 never went in to get looked at but it knocked me down on the couch and had me grabbing for my heart that felt like a knife got stuck in and twisted for about 10 mins . The next day it felt like a horse kicked me in the chest almost like a bad bruise. I let that slide and a few years later same thing when I was getting out of the work truck at the end of the day in my driveway. I let that slide too but fear became constant. I knew it wasn’t good but I hoped for the best because without insurance the cost would have set me back a minute. Happened again a couple years later but I didn’t want my friends to call an ambulance as I didn’t want to make a scene on the property. Last time, about 9 months ago I woke up to it stabbing and couldn’t get out of bed so I called for help and my 9 yr old son came to the rescue. I told him to please get me my bayer out of the medicine cabinet because I was having a heart attack. He ran and brought me the bottle and I quickly swallowed 2 and we hugged and cried for a minute and it started to go away to where I was able to move up off the bed. Then I made the appointment.. ekg showed an electrical failure from one point to another I didn’t quite understand it and the doctor said I had low ejection fraction of 25% and my blood pressure was hypertension 160/120 so they sent me to get a stress test and put me on metroprolal, atorvastatin, and losartan. The stress test had me sweating profusely and they said I did good but never explained anything. The doctors never explained any results to me or told me how long I have to live or what to do to fix it.😢 I’m a nervous reck cuz I feel like the doctors could care less about me since I have no insurance.

I’m sure you probably don’t remember me but I have really been wanting to talk to you.

Thank you this is very helpful to me

I had a quadruple bypass surgery almost five years ago. I was 55 at the time. The first three weeks were hell, no apitite couldn't drink anything, the original Gatorade and chick ramen kept me alive. Once I got passed that, things got significantly better. Was back to work on light duty in a month and full duty after 3 months. Was back power lifting at six months. You just got to get off your butt and walk and stay active to build strength and fight the depression. Its not an easy road! I wouldn't say I was fully healed tho, for about a year and a half.

Thank you for the great review. I proudly have not owned a TV set since 2004. I am glad to hear that my choice was the right one!

had quad bypas at 48. recovered great in a couple months .was actually back at work in a month but i'm the owner. was walking 3 miles after 2 months . got a treadmill for winter. i'm 63 now

My left ventricular heart ejection fraction was 84%. What does this typically mean?

Stamina improving. You forgot about coughing and sneezing and feels like chest pulls. I can walk about 1 mile to 2 miles no problem now.

Okay I have arthritis bursitis and then my body was walking in different directions and I thought it was my bursitis because it was raining and snowing and I called doctors office on Monday they told me come into office Tuesday morning and they order steroids and pharmacy told me it will not be ready until 6:00pm I was so painful problems I went home and then I started 😢 I cried myself to sleep and woke up and my daughter asked me where you're going I said I going to get my meds she said Mom no looked at time so I went back to sleep again and went pick up in morning Wednesday took the medicine like it said then Thursday did the same thing and done it Thursday night but didn't take it Friday morning just seating there waiting for my number be called turned My Head pain shot up from My right shoulder went over to the Left shoulder came back shot pain up to the right side of my jaw heard cracking sound I try to call for help but words didn't come out And I felt like My heart was bouncing from front to back felt like someone was pounding on back of chair I seen Gold arrow come from the side white spots and black spots didn't know what happened I went into a seizure for about 29mintures but the people said it seen likemore no body had right seconds i didnot know what happen fighter man said hi welcome back do you know where you're are I couldn't collect my thoughts right away i couldn't see right away they i asked did they called my name but i said number they asked how Long before the paramedics as i was coming to i felt someone rubbing my chest in circle and they had the box square box and now i have to go see a cardiology doctor and test mri show i dont have seziures I did have a few strokes in the past and they asked me if I know what tia attack i s yes i do what does it mean when the blood dont reach the brain

I started having blood show up in my stool. I stopped plavix and it stopped.

Thank you and God Bless you too !

That literature you are saying is based on Big Pharma results all because of money

I'm reading through the comments and everyone seems to be in great physical shape before their bypass. Need boots for all the bragging going on.

Thanks a lot. May need a stent, who knows what else. Biggest worry is how long away from work. Need to pay bills.

Why did my ejection fraction reduce by half in 10 years? In 2013 I had a heart bypass op. Four months later I had a follow-up with the hospital cardiologist. I had an echo cardiogram. EF was measured at 60%. Six weeks ago I was admitted to hospital with shortness of breath. Among other tests, I had another echo cardiogram. This time the EF was measured at between 25% and 35%. But what caused this huge reduction in EF? For the past 10 years I've tried to eat healthily. Lots of fish, including oily fish. Chicken mostly, with red meat consumption considerably reduced. I don't eat fast food more than once a week, if that. I cook most of my meals from scratch with fresh ingredients . I don't know what else I could have done to maintain EF. I'm 77 years old, male.

Had 6 bypasses at 50. Walking in less than 24 hours. Home in 3 days. Banging my wife after 10 days. Back to work in 7 weeks. No cardiac rehab. Smoked a J soon as I got home. Dr. Gregory Dedinski at Columbus Regional Health in Columbus Indiana is an awesome doctor. He stands by his work 100% and id recommend him to anyone. I wouldn't let anyone else cut on me except him.

Why didn't anybody tell me that copper deficiency is a major cause of Heart Disease...

This is fascinating. I just happened to see this video and watched it. My EF is currently 25% - 35% as diagnosed two weeks ago on admittance to hospital (UK). I am now on a cocktail of drugs, including sacubitril/valsartan. I am 77, male.

Cardiovascular disease are due to over consumption of sugar , carbohydrates and inactive lifestyle. Humans never consumed so many ultra processes carbohydrates in the history of mankind as they doing now, if this trend continues, the whole humanity will parish with metabolic diseases!

Thanks for the video, I am 56 of age, had 5 bypasses and I am now on my 4th week after the surgery. I started walking after a week, was doing well, and when reached my 3 week, things went down considerably. I was doing 1 mile daily, now I can barely do 0.4 MIL and I get heart attack pain, and dizziness, so I am really not sure if it will come back to normal, or something is going on. Prior to my surgery, I was walking 3 miles daily and worked out (GYM) 5 days a week, until I had a heart attack, always ate very healthy and never smoked...go figure.

please share this book complete PDF

Ver good video,I just want know if someone has 15% ejection fractions well he develops any symptoms or well his blood pressure and diabetes change too and well any thing gone show on the blood test related with law ejection fraction?

It's one of the best books. He not only discusses TV but other things like cults, brainwashing, etc. It's all true. I stopped watching TV about a decade ago and probably the best decision I ever made. You don't realize how detrimental it is until you get rid of it. At the very least you will have several hours a day of free time. What is worse is that people stick their kids in front of these lobotomizing machines. People wonder why the youth are so screwed up. Read the book, you will hopefully get it. I don't think TV is necessarily inherently evil... but there are humans that are and hence will use anything they can to destroy other humans for pleasure and profit. One could claim similar things about the internet. It true... but in this world one cannot travel to get personal experiences of everything they can on the internet. What is required is a balance and a society that isn't run by lunatics and morons. Anything is going to be bad when your "leaders" are insane. Unfortunately we are already past the event horizon. There has already been done irrepressible damage to humanity due to bad actors exploiting technology to extract wealth and power. It's thrown humanity in to a chaotic orbit that we likely won't recover from. If you understand these devices and your own mind(that you can easily be brainwashed) you can control what you put in your mind, for the most part. Once you do that you will see just how screwed up the world is, how people are exploited, but you can shape your own world. It's really no different than learning to eat healthy, exercise, etc. Unfortunately with AI developing to be able to create completely artificial digital realities most people will get sucked in, specially kids who's parents are clueless, and that will enslave entire generations. Real education is the only way to built a defense against these things. Reading history, psychology, science, math, etc all give insights. You cannot get the information from youtube because watching is not the same as reading(as mentioned). Reading requires active participation. Reading requires the mind to interpret. TV and video do all the work. One can put on a show and completely ignore it and think they've learned something. One cannot do that with a book(well, one can but it is much harder, specially if it is technical books because one will end up lost and be forced to go back).

My dad had major heart attack and he survived but lvef went to 35 and four arteries was blocked 80-95%, he underwent bypass surgery about 10 days ago after bypass his lvef went to 30, he is much better now but I want to ask if lvef will improve or not?

I am a basically healthy/slight hbp 67 y.o. female going in for removal of a left atrium myxoma. Would you think the same for my condition?

Hi Doctor! Thanks for that informative video. I recently got my echo done and my ef was ~55%. Besides my ldl level in blood was ~150. I don’t have any symptoms as such. I have a sedentary lifestyle but i have started brisk walking daily for at least an hour.. Should i be concerned about my ef or is it normal? The report said a normal ef ranges from 55 to 70% which means my ef is just on the threshold. Also can I increase my ef to 60%?

This is all bS! Everyone told Lebron James he would be great and he was. Everyone said Einstein was smart and he was a genius. What is bad is to call someone smart who is not really smart its like telling a 5 foot tall person they can slam dunk!

Thank you
