Have you had a Heart Attack or Stroke and used Avandia or had Heart Bypass Surgery?

Avandia:  Problems with Avandia gained national attention in May 2007, when an article in the New England Journal of Medicine identified potential side effects which could include increase the risk of heart attacks, heart disease and death. In December 2007, additional research indicated that Avandia side effects could also increase the risk of osteoporosis and bone fractures.  The Avandia problems have led to stronger warnings from the FDA about the risk of heart attacks and congestive heart failure, but many question why earlier information was not provided about the Avandia problems. 

Trasylol:  According to a report in The New England Journal of Medicine, Trasylol (aprotinin) has been found to increase the risk of heart attack, stroke, kidney failure and death.  The drug is commonly used to prevent excessive blood loss during heart surgery.  Trasylol is given to patients intravenously along with other medicines so that most people do not even know that they are receiving it. Doctors do not need special permission to administer it.
