First EP appointment
Thanks to all your replies to my first post as a newbie, and all the advice I've read on the blog since, I had a good idea of what to ask for after I was diagnosed with PAF in December. After initially trying me on beta blockers my very helpful GP was happy to refer me to an EP under the NHS and even

Feeling all weird
I feel really weird I started feeling weird earlier on today. I was sensitive to light and I felt like I would faint. For the past couple hours it feels like I'm not even "here". I was at the store with my friends and I felt like I was out of my body and not in reality. I keep focusing on mean things

Switch from Warfarin to Rivaroxaban
Thanks for all the help in the past. I now have another question. I've had a four month check up at Liverpool and everything is good. I told Dr Todd that my hair was thinning and he asked me if I wanted to change from Warfarin to one of the new anticoagulants. I replied that I didn't fancy the strict

Thrombosis Voices in Partnership Programme (ViPs)
This would have been called a deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and or a pulmonary
embolism
(PE). We would like you to join the ViP programme.

Despair and sadness
I was diagnosed with both APS and Lupus almost two years ago, after my first bilateral pulmonaire
embolism
(PE) in May 2014. Following this first one I since then had two further PEs, last year in February and August 2015. It appear that the last one still did not disolve.

Self-testing machine for checking INR
I am on warfarin having decided, for various reasons, not to go onto one of the new anticoagulant drugs. The only drawback is the regular blood testing. Has anyone any experience of the self-testing kits such as CoaguchekXS system? I was slightly concerned to read the NICE guideline which state that

Thoracic endometriosis!
They thought it was a pulmonary
embolism
but thankfully it wasn't but they found lung nodules which my Gynaecologist has confirmed as endometriosis.

Hi Everyone. I am brand new to this forum and only just learning about HS.

Phlebitis and SLE?
Hi . Just wanted to know if anyone else has suffered with Phlebitis as a SLE symptom or if it is my meds that might be causing it. It is bad enough that I can't walk very far but now I have an inflammation of the blood vessels in my foot and leg! Any info would be helpful.

Newly diagnosed PE and scared :-(
Hi all, I'm 35 years old and had severe chest pain since New Year's Eve, which I thought was a pulled muscle. Last Thursday I was diagnosed with a PE after blood test and CTPA scan (no leg swelling at all). I've been having daily blood tests, Heparin injections and Warfarin tablets but feel very alone

What's happening?
I had an ultra sound that ruled out pulmonary
embolism
, blood pressure fine ruled out preeclampsia, no sign of stroke or heart attack. Post partum the rash and breathlessness cleared up. But 2 days after giving birth, my right foot big toe joint swelled up.

Hi everyone! My name is Luka and I suffered from 2 DVT's in both of my legs. I got first one when I was 12 years old after which I was diagnosed with thrombophilia. Since I was young and stupid I didn't realise how serious was the diagnosis and lived my life as a young person does - wild and careless
