hmmmnnn Interesting you would say this because on day 1 of my first 2 stents, they gave me plavix immediately, and the next day I went home and took my next dose and my throat was raspy like I was feeling allergic and I called cardiologist and asked if I could be allergic to it. He said "you could, but highly unlikely - see how you do." But truthfully, I had the shortness of breath before the stents which led me to getting heart checked to begin with. Meeting today, cardiologist wants to go in again. Say a prayer! 🙁
