Hi, I've found Warfarin made a staggering difference for me - even after years of taking it I'm still aware of month to month improvements happening. First though I was just on aspirin and that improved the migraines but didn't improve cognitive function. Jen x

I was poorly for the first year 2002/3 but by 2004 I was looking for new ways to rehab as i started taking charge of my anticoags and self testing. I got back to driving locally after 1 year so my memory had improved as I was assessed for this. Reality about money and keeping a roof over my head kicked in and I got a job broker who suggested a rehab course at the gym. I remember reflecting on further improvements then after 3 months so I joined up for the gym! It is a slow and variable recovery so far not helped by all the threats the NHS gives! I remember starting a short course in a local college and feeling so out of it but perservered and was thrilled to get my computer driving license at the end of a year which included a load of abuse from a lecturer! I am still job hunting and am still variable especially at this time of year with all the bugs around. Some ignorant woman just coughed and sneezed into a supermarket cabinet the other day with no sign of a hankie! I just ran as I was already sporting a visible injury from a fall and didn't want more trouble.! You see it is a rehab process take every day as it comes and develope inner strength to plan around new obstacles. All the best Gemma2012

Hi I started on asprin, it made no difference. I got very poorly and hydroxychloroquin was added but I didn't see a significant difference until I went on heperine! But everyone is different and for some asprin works x
