Experiences with

Arixtra

So he said I had choices, Warfarin, but given my stomach problems, probably not a good idea, Fondaparinux (Arixtra) injection, or as he preferred, remain on Heparin for another 3 months, then see about transitioning to Arixtra injections, he is suggesting the latter as there is even lesser a risk with

I push through every day fighting fatigue, tiredness, easily bruised, healing very slowly, I have to go to my hematologist sometimes every week, twice a month has been few and far between as I have had to bridge over the warfarin for so many surgeries or procedures with Arixtra shots in the stomach

Tried Lovenox and Arixtra and got 2 cases of H.I.T. Beem doing 4 shots, 28 per week of Iprivask. I am always nauseas. I shave my body and only wear a tank top and shorts. I am unable to controlmy body temperature. I always turn beet red and have to be near air conditioning. My memory is going.

I have a rare blood disorder and I inject Arixtra(Fondaparinux) at this time. Heparin and Agatraban both had the opposite effect on me. Due to the expense, my doctor has recommended possibly switching to Rivaroxaban. I am a little nervous to change what I know is working. Camie

About 2 1/2 years ago I tried lovenox and felt very agitated and uncomfortable on it should I expect similar side effects from the Arixtra? Has anyone taken Arixtra that can tell me what their experiences have been? Thanks, Jen

I am on Arixtra injections daily for at least 3 months. I was just diagnosed with Primary Antiphospholipid Syndrome. I already have Fibromylagia and Chronic Fatigue so the brain fog and fatigue is nothing new for me. Any advice from those who have had this longer?

Also, anyone here on arixtra instead of warfarin? My hematologist says arixtra is more powerful.

Currently on 2.5 mg arixtra, low does aspirin and plaque nil. Yet, no relief. Doctors have no more tests to perform. I'm searching for best U.S. Medical center to get help. Looks like Duke is highly rated for APS from cooments on this site.

I was then placed on Arixtra. Two years later I had my recent clot in a different vein in the left arm. This frightens me as on I've had clots in varying location within 6 years, and on what is to be believed to be sufficient treatment.
