I have been having severe artey pain and pressure after having 8 heart catherzations with replacing one stent 8 times i have had major bleed out in my groin with blood in the belly for three months after. my arteries hurt any where you can get a pulse. my family doctor seems to think that they punchured a nerve in my groin i had a femerol nerve block on 6-22 which did not give me any relief so noe they say they didn't go high enough and they want to redo my nerve block but now the nerve in my leg is on fire and i cannot stand anything to touch it. i would greatly apprecaite any information and help any one can give thank you

Hi
Thanks for writing to the forum!
I have written to you earlier too. Vasculitis, sickle cell disease, multiple blood clots in veins and arteries should all be looked into. You have a heightened response to pain. Repeated procedures have changed the environment of your arteries and veins. Get your dopamine and serotonin blood levels checked. History of taking drugs and certain medications should be looked into.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!

Hi thank you for responding to my questions. I am on a lot of medications 1 plavix 2 cardizem 3 lipitor 4 tricor 5 lovaza 6 aspirin 7 gabapentin 8 zocor 9 prevacid 10 spirvia 11 perocet for the nerve pain. Is there a certian medication you were talking about. I have had several conversations with my heart and family doctor about these pains and pressure and it seems to fall on deaf ears. Can this cause me more health problems if it continues and nothing is done about it.I have asked several times if i could have scar tissue in my arteries from having so many heart caths on which i died and had to be revived. i also on my second sergery had threw up a plastic piece out of my stomach could it be that they punchured threw my artery into my stomach for the plastic to be in my stomach.I sure apprecaite you taking your time to try and give me some ansewers to my questions i thank you .
