Hi, I had 2 stents placed, but now I continually feel sleepy..while I now also have high blood pressure, which I never had before taking medicines. Since one of the medicines is a blood thinner, I would think my blood pressure should reduce, not increase.. This is just a con to get money...
Hello, Thanks for posting your query on Chat Doctor ...* Brief Answer: your sleep disorder has nothing to do with your anti ischemic or stents. You need to control your blood pressure.*Explanation: My opinion is that ischemic heart disease is a bit of concern. Treatment of this condition is through anti ischemic, coronary interventions or surgery. Excessive sleeping after coronary intervention is not related side effect. I suggest my patients the following follow-up blood pressure and see if they should take a medication. The information provided by you is not sufficient to provide a good opinion. If someone comes to me with this condition I would ask them about other medications that may cause sleepiness as a side effect.*Conclusion: I suggest you check your medications with your doctor.  If you have any further questions I will be happy to help, If not, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish you good health.
