Not really: All medications used after an ischemic stroke (cholesterol plaque rupture causing an interruption in blood flow) are treated with blood thinners. Some people are more sensitive to certain ones, so if you've had a GI bleed while on Plavix (clopidogrel), (clopidogrel) then talk to your neurologist. Plavix (clopidogrel) is usually the best, but start with aspirin 182 mg daily. If you still have strokes, then Aggrenox is the next step up.

Question 7

can the injection off cck during a hida scan be fatal or have any adverse effects on the body? thanks!

Accepted Answer

Almost certainly not: Since CCK is a substance your own body makes it is pretty benign, especially given in a one-time dose.  It may give you a feeling of bloating for a few hours as it delays stomach emptying, but there are very few other effects from it that you will feel.  I have never heard of any fatalities

Question 10

could blowing my nose with a leaf have any adverse effects?

Accepted Answer

Tissue paper: While the best choice would obviously be a facial tissue or toilet paper, a leaf could be an effective alternative.  There is a big depends, though.  It depends on your choice of leaves.  There are many that could be safe, but many that would not be.  If you haven't had itching or rash from where it contacted your face, you'll probably be okay.  If you need again, use a part of your clothes.
