I Just Had Three Stents Put In The Front Of

I just had three stents put in the front of my heart and angioplasty performed behind my heart. The procedure was done through my right wrist. I am supposed to take asprin, Plavix, and Crestor. I am afraid to take asprin and Plavix together. Everything I read about it scares me. I want to be a good patient, but I am very nervous about combining the two. Is it okay to take just Plavix since it is already a blood thinner?

Your honest and "heartfelt" answer will be appreciated.
