New to TB
Basically My GP sent me to A&E suspecting I have Pulmonary
embolism
. After series of test in the hospital, doctors concluded I might have TB. I was not allowed to go home and immediately admitted.

Lupus Anticoagulant positive update 3
Well meeting with haematology and neurology was postponed on 21st, it's now on the 7th. As you can imagine wasn't happy. Slowly collating all the paperwork regarding my wife. Had an email back from Professor Graham Hughes, who correctly guessed my wife's INR results and suggested that she needs a higher

Who should i be seeing in the UK?
Hi, Im in the Uk. was told I had lupus anticoagulant after having a clot on my brain (and a DVT whilst on warfarin) My neuro rehab told me in 2018. My GP switched me from warfarin to rivaroxaban as I was never in range of 3-4. From reading posts on here and elsewhere only warfarin is recommended and

Discharge today
John has been at Albany Medical Center since Monday. We had a nightmare ER experience at Northern Westchester and Westchester Medical that I’ll spare the details of. Pulmonary Embolisms, multiple acute and subacute TIA’s and an elevated troponin were what was discovered. He has regained his ability

Transitioning from Dalteparin to Rivaroxaban
My Hematology team have decided to take me off Dalteparin 15,000 IU/0.6 ml to Rivaroxaban 15 mg, this is because a recent DEXA scan has shown I have severe Osteoporosis in spine and hip, and they say Dalteparin can worsen Osteoporosis. They said I have to take both Dalteparin and Rivaroxaban together

Update 3 months since Ablation
Hi Everyone, just thought I’d update you all on where I am up too. So good news is I’ve been AF free since my few blips after my ablation in early November. I finish my rivaroxaban today 31/01/19 as instructed from my EP. So today is exactly 3 months post procedure. I’m a bit nervous about coming off

Blood Clots with Lupron
At our meeting a couple of days ago he had some information about a Swedish study which showed patients on lupron had two and a half times the likelihood of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) and twice the likelihood of pulmonary
embolism
than the general population. First I'd heard of that.

Stents
Hubby has APS and was on warfarin but was removed from it to insert 2 stents. They stopped the warfarin, and then put him on aspirin after stents inserted. He then, within days, had clots block the stents. They then inserted some sort of puffer machine to ‘puff’ out clots and put him on iv heparin. Now

Shortness of breath since September
Went to the ED a few times, got worked up for pulmonary
embolism
but was negative. Got MRI/CT/X ray and they found nothing. It’s really frustrating as it comes and goes and some days are better than others, and I lost weight because when I eat I almost choke because I’m breathing through my mouth.

Previous venous thrombus as risk factor?
I've been doing copious amounts of reading and was quite perturbed today when the haemotologist said quite emphatically that my previous pulmonary
embolism
(being a venous thrombus) at age 18 (I'm now 40) was likely an unrelated incident and is not related to the increased risk of the posed arterial

No Treatment?!
It seems as if despite ongoing pain and problems I have to wait for an
embolism
to occur before I get any treatment? I find this shocking and risky. I was wondering what I can do? I also have pernicious anaemia and probably a form of ANCA vasculitis and/or a hint of Lupus.

Pulmonary Embolism, confidence somewhat shattered
First of all Happy New Year everyone. Since September I have been generally unwell, with a myriad of symptoms, too numerous to mention, but one problem that troubled me most, breathing problems, and the feeling of being throttled. 3 trips to A & E, had me sent away with a range of dismissive suggestions

Beware of Tachycardia.

Never had PACs before AF Episodes got closer together???
I had my first a fib episode in 2013 and was cardioverted back to NSR and was fine until I threw a Pulmonary
Embolism
in April of this year. A Fib was what made me go to the hospital and then they found the clot.
