Suggest Treatment For Fatigue And Weakness While On Plavix

My 80 year old mother had a stent placed in her widow maker artery 6 weeks ago. She is also on Plavix. She is suffering from extreme fatigue and weakness. She says her voice is also weak. She also has pain in one leg. Any clues why she is not recovering as she should?

Hello

I don't think her concerns are due to plavix.If it is close to the surgery she has passed than no worries it will recover ,I mean at least one month.If not than better for her to be seen by her doctor again.

Regards
