Tired of it all!
After a third pregnancy went wrong I went on depo provera injections every three months (periods stopped) but had to come off it after getting a pulmonary
embolism
. After a few months started to have terrible pains in my abdomen and groan.

Can low INR cause depression/mood swings/anxiety?
Hi, with the help of my clinic nurse we are nearly on track with getting the correct warfarin dose to get my INR within its target range (2.5-3.5), however my husband and I have noticed when it drops below the range I am depressed, anxious and moody. It's really causing problems. Before I started warfarin

So.....I have Hughes with very high levels of antibodies. I was on Fragmin injections which I got on with very well. However, after a consultation in October it was agreed that I would try Rivaraxoban and see how I got in with that. I was initially apprehensive when I saw the long list of possible side

Anti phospholipid antibody with Hemorrhagic disorder
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

Nervous.

Rivaroxaban
Hi, I have been injecting Fragmin since August this year and I get on well with them, however I am about to be swapped over to Rivaroxaban. I have just picked them up and read the side effects! Wow! Does anybody else have any experience of this drug and if so how do you find it? Any horrible side effects
