Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you for asking!
I read your query and understood your concerns.

After reviewing your symptoms and your actual treatment my opinion is that your symptoms are related to Brilinta 90 mg side effects.

Patients who use Brilinta may experience chest discomfort, dyspnea, blurred vision and gastric indigestion (including burping).

If you were my patient I would recommend to switch from Brilinta and Plavix to the combination of Aspirin and Plavix.

Since Brilinta is an antiplatelet agent which may be essential in the management of patients with previous heart attacks. This is why you should contact your doctor before stopping Brilinta.

Hope this will be of help!
Wish you health!
Dr. Shehu
p.s: If you have more questions, please don't hesitate to ask me again.
