I had a main artery stent inserted 15 months ago. I have a lot of joint paint,bleed excessively from minor wounds, and bruise terribly from small or minor bumps. I feel much weaker than before the medication. I am hoping that after an ecogram in October I will be able to stop this med. I have the doctor that I think Satan himself created this med!
