Is It Dangerous To Stop Plavix Since It Is Giving Me Flushing In The Face And Sickness In Stomach?
I am a 77 yr old male who recently had a TIA. Doctors put me on Plavix and Aspirin, 325mg. I go from feeling fairly good to feeling very flushed in the face and sick to my stomach. My BP jumps from normal to a reading of l60/95 in just a short time. What is the danger of stopping Plavix?

Cereblo vascular event could be dangerous, and stopping it can increase chances of it. Before you intend to do it, make an appointment with your neurologist.
