Ablation - Caused Pulmonary Embolism
What I did not realize is that the cough I was developing and pain in my chest was from a lung
embolism
that had me rushed to the ER 2 weeks post ablation. Fighting that scary problem now with blood thinning agents Warfarin and Lovenox shots. ER docs said the surgery caused the
embolism
.

Anyone with DVT not related to flying, sitting or cancer
Hi, I am new here, but recently had DVT in thigh, no long flights, fairly mobile, walk everyday. Cancer was mentioned at hospital then dismissed and HRT given as the cause. According to NHS website 1 in 10 of all people diagnosed with a DVT out of the blue will have an undetected cancer. My GP not

New here, but worried
Hi recently diagnosed with DVT, GP is not doing tests for cancer as suspects it was my HRT. I do not feel happy about him just assuming it is this, especially as have just read that 1 in 10 new DVT's is due to a cancer which you do not realise you have. Has anyone here with a DVT had the tests and

Should I take my anticoagulant?
Just got back from hospital after an emergency visit for an acute infection in my tear duct (lump the size of a golf ball). I have to go back tomorrow to get it drained, which will involve a small incision under local anaesthetic. I am already on antibiotics. FIrst saw a junior doctor whose treatment

Effect of Pulmonary Embolism
I had a DVT 20 months ago following surgery, this then caused a PE. I was treated with Rivaoxiban and told to wear compression stockings for two years which I have done. I go to the gym on a regular basis but dont seem to have the lung capacity I used to have. Does the PE have a longterm effect on

Thoughts about Xarelto and APS
I was put on to Xarelto in Hospital after an unprovoked jugular vein DVT. Initially treated with heparin. As it turned out I eventually tested positive twice to the drvvt test so APS confirmed. At the same time diagnosed with SLE due to other issues My thoughts are that warfarin treats other symptoms

Pulmonary Embolism and the Future
Hi, This year in June I was diagnosed with a large bilateral saddle PE. I'm working on my recovery which has been hard and isolating. I wanted to know what the future has had in store for others with PEs - how has your recovery been? How has it impacted things like pregnancy / getting through winters
