I ask because I was just told that from a coworker who needs arteries opened up in his heart. He had something like 8 or 10 put in a year ago after a heart attack, and they are all starting to plug up now. From my understanding, that many stents at one time is highly suspect. And they don't usually plug up that quickly. I knew he had gotten the vaccines, so I told him I had just read a little of a report that I had just seen, and Pfizer had quite a few adverse events from their vaccine. Then he told me, "that's what I got. Pfizer." He had no idea about all the issues surrounding the clot shot. I wasn't trying to scare him, and I didn't say very much, but I thought his family should know in case he passes away suddenly. I did say that they are not talking about it in the news, and a judge had just forced them to start releasing the information they wanted to hide for 75 years. Which he didn't know about either.
This is the report I was referring to: https://phmpt.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/5.3.6-postmarketing-experience.pdf?fbclid=IwAR1WyY8JBxItFJQmgVxrjJIMn2kCyc2dVtq4tOBDAvRhezEdQYb0pqoqpow
Praying for the guy. He's in rough shape.
Anyway, first I've heard of anyone having to wait for a stent procedure. Usually, they are scheduled right away.
The more stents that you put in, statistically the chances of one or more re-stenosing go up. See, when you put in a stent, and the balloon expands the stent, it injures the inside of the artery a little. Think of it as a cut on your hand. Your body’s natural reaction to a wound is to send platelets and clotting factors to heal the wound. Even with medicine, this can still build up into scar tissue over time, which eventually closes down the stents. The more you put in at one time, the more your chances of something bad happening.
I understand, but all of them?
BTW, I am familiar with the typical revascularization rates, and this doesn't seem typical. Now this guy could be a special case, except that he did also get the Pfizer shot, and there's been a couple of unexpected sudden deaths among coworkers. I don't know the personal history of all of them, but I do know the company has had "free vaccine clinics" several times over the last year or so. Git yer shots, git yer boosters, we can't force ya, but we insist ya do.... a few of us didn't.
I know that the Pfizer shots can cause blood clots, but your friend would present with a heart attack if that were the case. He’s not presenting with ST elevation, is he?
As far as the shot’s long term effect on restenosis, that is a very valid question. Could the shot lead to accelerated cellular proliferation at injury sites, causing an exponential increase in scar tissue? I don’t think there’s enough data out there to say yet, but it is very intriguing.
I pray that it’s not the case. I hope that it was something as simple as a technical error by the physician, and could be remedied by another intervention and then maintained with medicines.
On the other hand, some people just have a strong response to the stenting procedure, either by their immune response, or even an allergic reaction to the metal that the stent is made of or the drug that’s on the stent.
A heart attack lead to an emergency trip to the hospital and all the stents being put in at the same time. It wasn't a couple here or there, as has been the case for most people I've encountered.
That is horrible. What was the outcome? Were they able to clear the clots? How is he doing now? Did they change his meds around? Did the physician offer any explanation?
