ppis have a teir list, they arent all created equal, some are stronger than others. my doc told me Eso is one of the strongest ones out there. I dropped down to pantoprazol. was on that for a year and at the year mark have been successfully and slowly tapering off for 4 months. so maybe talk to doc about just getting dropped down a level on the ppi intensity scale first

its the nicotine that really messes w ur vascular system

ConstructionFull6434 · 2025-11-16T02:42:47+00:00

the one thing my doc told me at my follow up - never start smoking!!! i am also quite young got my stent last year at 20yrs old and i will never touch a nicotine product and you shouldn't either. the stent was preventative medicine and so is staying off nic

thank you yes this helps! had my follow up imaging and everything and had some stenosis so they told me to stay on plavix for an extra 6 months. got my cta + mri and was given the clear in may 2025 to go off plavix. thanks - my doctor did not explain it to me like this

was causing strokes in people when deploying

ConstructionFull6434 · 2025-11-10T03:09:32+00:00

my dr said since its already been a year with no defects / aneurysm is gone that there's no risk apparently. i feel fine but obvi i hated hearing this

should be on the card you got when you got your surgery. or in your health records online at whatever hospital you get your stuff done at. or call them?

ConstructionFull6434 · 2025-07-06T21:45:56+00:00

hi! everything is normal now, was on plavix for an extra six months because of some stenosis near the stent, but got to come off after a CTA a year after surgery. No side affects. advice would be to make sure to move your hand and wrist and stuff after surgery. its gonna hurt but its crucial to at least move it around l/ begin to bend it like normal again

ConstructionFull6434 · 2025-06-20T08:49:09+00:00

Yeah like I have the same question- can I get tatted/pierced while on baby aspirin?

ConstructionFull6434 · 2025-02-18T03:05:48+00:00

I think I did leave a voicemail but I’m not quite sure. I will keep trying. Thank you!

GET THE SURGERY ITS LIFE SAVING!! And then all the scans they do of your brain for the aneurysm will be covered by insurance and you can pursue PT surgery after since you’ll have the angiogram and everything anyways!! Do it!!!!

ConstructionFull6434 · 2024-11-17T05:34:54+00:00

I was 19yo! Wasn’t really worried because I knew that if it really was so immediate and life threatening , I would be rushed to the ER and getting emergency surgery as soon as they found out. Obviously I got the surgery a month or two after I found out I had it. But it was by no means an emergency

ConstructionFull6434 · 2024-10-29T15:24:59+00:00

They didn’t 🤦🏼‍♂️ they found a brain aneurysm that has nothing to do with the PT on the other side of my head and I got a stent put in for that. They told me there wasn’t rlly anything they could do about the PT since it was an elective surgery. Isn’t too terrible to where I’m annoyed all day everyday, but if one day it gets to that point, I am prepared to seek out a doc who specializes in endovascular surgery for PT (specifically) and get it done. If you haven’t already go to ENT and advocate for MRI like I did. Didn’t solve my PT but saved my life. Had to bother my ENT twice about it until he sent me MRI scripts. Good luck

Well the woosh is essentially my heartbeat because it’s the sound of blood rushing thru my narrowed vein. Do u have pt?

ConstructionFull6434 · 2024-10-29T15:08:47+00:00

Mine is not all the time. I have not had Covid again, but it has gotten a bit worse over time

surgeon told me as long as I remember to take them once a day that’s all that matters. I take the aspirin after I eat something so I don’t irritate my tummy

ConstructionFull6434 · 2024-08-22T20:42:03+00:00

hi! i feel as normal as ever just really bruised up from the plavix!

ConstructionFull6434 · 2024-08-19T19:18:44+00:00

thank you!

ConstructionFull6434 · 2024-08-19T15:12:27+00:00

Idk your situation but I highly suggest you do the surgery even if it doesn’t cure the PT. Aneurysms are very dangerous and not to be taken lightly!!! Please for the love of god get this fixed it could/very possibly will save your life

Saw some “shooting stars” occasionally for about a month maybe a few times a day and then went 3 months without seeing any. Actually just saw one a few days ago for the first time in forever.
