Swellings way down with commpression but clot still big. 2 years of commpression stockings and 4 more month's of Xarelto. Dr. Kept saying you are way young for this to be happing and the clit to be so big. I am 46 not so young.
When did you get the clot, Teresaelliot? Have they done another scan to be able to tell that it is still big? Was it a DVT? I had my PE 2 years ago now, on warfarin for life but have had no further CT Scans done, have just assumed it's broken down, gets reconstituted, as told it would.
I went to ER with a P.E. 3 month's ago and they found my clot. It was the deepest main vein and from my anckle To my waist and thr outside veins are not working well. I have been taking xarolto 3month's now. They sent me to vein Atlanta and I have had 3 scans so far it's smaller but not gone. I have to take Xarolto for4 more month's and wear compression stocking for 2 year's. I was sent to a Heamotologist last week and told the same thing I was when admitted that I am anemic I have been for year's and taking a strong supplement called Hema-plex packed full of Iron with Bs and zink, magnesium other good blood flow helpers. Nevertheless we know this has something to do with it so I am going back to see him on wed. meanwhile I bought compression tights because I think they are more comfy and I run. I am training for my first half marathon it is on thanksgiving day, lots of time to get in shape and I am thankful for my health. It's a cloths Drive as we'll...
What other medications are you taking? I ask because I was on omeprazole to guard against ulcers due to excess stomach acid but discovered that my blood count was continually low. I stopped taking it and my blood count was back to normal in no time at all. My doctor didn't know of the side effect!
No other medication I have been anemic way before the clot started and through high school. It seans to have gotten worse as an adult , I eat really we'll so It's strange lot's of organic veggies and not much fat. I have never taken any meds. Before Xarelto.
Hi Teresaelliott 22, I also was anemic for many years and the doctors could'nt understand why. Right thorough my teens and beyond. I was given upteen courses of iron and it was still the same. The doctor wouldn't believe I had taken them. After I gave birth in my 30s I was really unwell. Blood tests again showed very anemic,doctor was suprised I hadn't fainted. Went into hospital and discovered I had Coeliac Disease (allergy to gluten), I had obviously had it for years. Since being on a gluten free diet I have never been anemic since and I have never had to take iron tablet.
Perhaps this is something worth looking into for you. Many doctors still are not very aware of this disease. Mine was only found out by a Gastrologist.
Good Luck.
Becky1222 , I am chronically anaemic too, as a Coeliac but do still have to take iron tablets . Yes, this immune disease has been missed in people for too long ...I Suffered for 50 years with every symptom in the book, consequently having my whole immune system break down, including developing asthma at 40 and being in the 3% of Coeliacs who have their thyroid break down. I already had fibromyalgia which should have alerted them as there is a direct link with coeliac disease.
Now, this, getting a PE.....Some of us get it all, Grrrrrr.
Thank YOU I go back tomorrow and will ask questions.
They took me off the Hempa-plex not a good one the helth food store recommend it but apparently some Iron is harer for the body to digest. The new stuff is working much better.
