I have C.A.D. and had two angioplasties with stents. I am on medication (Lipitor, Plavix, Lisinopril, Metoprolol, and Glyburide (for Type 2 diabetes). I have hip, back and sciatica pain that do not allow me to exercise. I am 65 and overweight. I loved to hike, fish and hunt, but I can t walk too long now. I was told by a friend to take Traumeel instead of aspirin, which I use heavily. Would Traumeel do anything for my pain and allow me to be more active? And would it interact with my heart medications? Thank you for your answer.
Your pain may be related to Lipitor, many of my patients have suffered severe pain over back, thighs and hips. So you kindly check your blood for enzyme called CPK, if you find it abnormal please go back to your doctor for alteration in dose or medicine. The medicine trammel you mentioned is not allipatChatDoctoredicine, and you should avoid. I also suggest you to take calcium and it D in consultation with your doctor. You may take tramadol or another analgesic for your pain.
