Does Traumeel Help To Reduce Hip/back/sciatica Pain When Having C.A.D/angioplasties With Stents?

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.
