My advice is to use this as an opportunity for some positive changes and also to live for today as life's too short.

Best of luck!

I should go back to your GP and ask what the hospital said - the hospitals always copy your GP in on your notes, and very often you get a copy, too (depends, I think, on your local NHS trust). In any event, if you are unhappy, don't let your GP fob you off, but go ON making appointments until you get some satisfactory answers.

I totally understand I was diagnosed with a pe after my c-section and have been on Apixaban ever since. I am so frightened to come off it. Can you remain on them of you choose?

I asked to carry on with the anticoagulants and they sorted them no problem so no harm in asking.

Not what you're looking for?
