Welcome SG!

I looked up Plavix, and it's not for GERD, it's for blood clotting issues. I would not recommend someone stop that type of medication without a doctor's opinion.

"Plavix is used to prevent blood clots after a recent heart attack or stroke, and in people with certain disorders of the heart or blood vessels."

However I did find this story about mixing Plavix with Heartburn drugs, which she might be taking because of the GERD:

Maybe she's losing weight because of the GERDS, if she doesn't feel like eating? If she's not trying to lose weight, then I think a doctor visit is in order. That much weight loss over such a short time needs to be checked out. Plus, the issues with Plavix and other medicines.

Good luck!!
