PE and warfarin. Scared to take it. Scared to stop taking it.
I had a simple outpatient procedure due to a miscarriage and developed a small pulmonary
embolism
in my right lung. I now wonder if I had already had it due to the high amounts of birth control used for long periods of time before the pregnancy. I was diagnosed with the PE one month ago.

Water retention
I'm getting on ok with being put on warfarin because of a DVT and PE on my lung, but my left leg is massively swollen it's obviously something to do with water retention! Does anyone think it's to do with the drug I'm taking please.

How do you know if you APS specialist is actually that?
I have had a pulmonary
Embolism
maybe 2 or 3 and was possibly diagnosed with APS as sero negative by Rheumatologist in my home town.

Success - Finally. Carry on Marine.
Heading into 4 months AF free after ablation without a hitch, other than surviving a huge Pulminary
embolism
brought on by the ablation procedure and massive amounts of blood thinners. After 90 days and a few CT scans I am officially off thinners as of yesterday.

DVT meds a cause ?
I am now wondering if my prelonged use of the meds or any changes to my body following the Pulminary
Embolism
, have caused a very significant increase in the incidence of my suffering RLS. I only seem to experience it from around 1 - 8 am.

Help to move on
My cardiologist said it was most likely caused by an
embolism
due to the AF. I am on medication to control my heart rhythm, blood pressure tablets and aspirin. I do not fit the criteria for blood thinners. My general health is so much better but I am struggling to move on.

They increased my warfrin to 10mg a day Friday, (so I'm one increased dose in, and today my INR is 2.2 meaning its 1.7. I called the emergency line and they have suggested I supplement with aspirin tonight every 4 hours

On period after PE last year
Last year in March, I gave birth and had a PE (pulmonary
embolism
). In October I finished my Warfarin cycle and this week I have had my first period since birth. It's really heavy and it's making me really anxious.
