Hi there and welcome, please rely on us for a bit of support, many women on here have been in a similar position to yourself. You need to tell us where you are located, as it is vital you have a specialist who fully understands this condition. Your hormones will be all over the place and I am sure not sleeping will all be adding to your current stress. If you are pregnant you will definitely need full monitoring on anticoagulants. It is also vital to have your Thyroid tested, also your levels of Vitamin D, (should sit at around 75), and also your B12 and iron, any of these being out will make you feel a far lot worse. MaryF
