Effectiveness is defined as prevention of thromboembolic stroke, or systemic
embolism

Paradoxical Embolism
One of the tests uncovered a hole (PFO -Patent foramen ovale) and then after further investigation I was diagnosed with having a Paradoxical
Embolism
- an extremely rare event when a blood clot travels from the right to the left of your heart via the PFO ..which in my case caused me to have a heart

Taper Advice after too fast a taper
I presented to the ED of our local hospital and they checked me out for an pulmonary
embolism
and any other cardiac nasties. Everything tested fine. I returned home after 5 hours and am now left with the dilemma of what to do next.

Two years ago due to pregnancy I had a pulmonary
embolism
on my left lung but other than mental health I’ve always been physically well. I’ve gained so much weight now as well. I used to be like a stick now I’ve got weight on my stomach and hips.

Pelvic congestion and endo
I've looked at stuff online and read about vein
embolism
so wondered if anyone might have had that done?

Newly diagnosed
I recently came back from a long haul holiday and went to GP as I was a bit breathless and thought I may have an
embolism
. They noted that my heart rate was very high and sent me to hospital. I had an ECG and they told me that I have AF and further tests also indicated that I have heart failure.

it feels like I'll never get better
I went to the ER several times and got tested for pulmonary
embolism
, blood tests, sed rate tests, anaemia, etc. But none of these were positive. I used my Ventolin constantly, but it didn't help in the slightest.

embolism

Lupus Anticoagulant testing while on Warfarin
I have searched the group but I do not seem to find what I need to know. If your hematologist insist on testing for Lupus Anticoagulant how many days must you stop warfarin before the test? The hematologist says that the DVRTT test works without stopping Warfarin. But I have read many times that while

end of he line
Since diagnosis in 2018, I have pretty much run the gamut of affordable SOC treatments and I finally got my Onco to agree that the treatments were doing more harm than good (based on side effects and endlessly climbing PSA). I have continual gut pain. Is this type of pain what we hear about as

bloodthinners
I’ve been on blood thinners for6 months after having a Pulmonary
Embolism
post surgery. I have completed my Chemo. 3 weeks ago and I have been told I can stop taking blood thinners as my risk is no greater than the normal person. Has anybody else been through a similar experience.

emphysema results
hi everyone I have emphysema . Just had a spirometry test and my results are Fev1 =50%/1.16 Fev1/Fev6 =0.67/87% fev6 =62% how bad is this? Does it mean I only have half lung capacity? How is everyone managing at this level?

osteopenia worse, im on enoxaparin/ lovenox any thoughts on vitk2?
I had repeat dexascan says my hips are getting worse, anyone on enoxaparin/lovenox taking vit k2 for “calcium to bone absorption”? Docs are talking about fosamex, etc, but I would rather do vitamins if possible. Not looking for medical advice but would like to know if others with APS are taking it

Hello - my 'Mum' has Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
Hi. My auntie who I have had a close mother-daughter type relationship for all my life (I'm 50, she's 80) started showing strong symptoms in late 2021 and was diagnosed last year with Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. She is now housebound on 24hr oxygen therapy with carers coming in and lots of visits

High heart rate
My fertility doctor was worried it might be a pulmonary
embolism
-and sent me to A&E. After a grueling 12 hours, they excluded a pulmonary
embolism
, but my heart-rate continues to be higher than (my) normal. At one point yesterday it was reading 120 (!)

Chemo Side Effects
Two weeks later I had a resurgence of severe leg pain and was diagnosed with more DVTs along with a pulmonary
embolism
. The doctor told me to discontinue the Eliquis because it was obviously not preventing blood clot formation.
