MY STOMACH HURTS & I'M COUGHING ALOT Published: April 02, 2008 ::
been on for four months...I can see a little benefit and hoping to have more as I have been told it could take up to 6 months for benefits. I have developed heartburn and not sure if drug is cause. I am on oxygen 6 liters. I also drink a lot of water, not sure if it helps liver but can't hurt I think. Take care..... Published: December 01, 2008 ::

Even with the severe headaches, I continued this drug for a few more weeks. I began having blood come through my stools and had to be taken off. Be careful with this drug (as well as any others) Published: November 10, 2008 ::

have been on tracleer since early 2004 and have had no problems with or from it. i was put on tracleer after being on flolan since feb 1998 when diagnosed with Primary Pulmonary Hypertension. it is a lot easier to take just two pills a day instead of having a 24 hour pump that you have to carry around. my pressures have been normal since put on flolan and have been healthy ever since. i'm hoping to be slowly taken off tracleer by my doctors soon. i hope to get taken off so i may get pregnant in the near future.
