Anyone Have Blood Clots Following Chemo?
I have just been diagnosed with nearly a foot-long blood clot in my right leg. An ultrasound indicates the clot's in a smaller vein near the surface of the skin, as opposed to a deep vein. But it is raising concern of my doctor as it's apparently close to a junction with a larger vein. It is extremely

Smoking, Oxygen Use Linked to Higher Hospitalization Risk in IPF.
While receiving treatment at specialized centres lowers the risk of hospitalization among patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), being a former smoker and requiring oxygen therapy are both associated with a higher likelihood of hospitalization. These are some of the findings of multiple

Aortic Valve Replacement
November last year I had a pulmonary
embolism
affecting both lungs and my d diner reading was 4048, which is very high. They did the d dimer test again yesterday and it was 2000 and told me it can be raised after surgery. I still have some fluid on one lung after surgery also.

I have had DVT and Pulmonary

a few years ago.I have Cirrhosis that was Decompensated due to alcohol and understandably know my answers about this issue will be important. Mentally, it has been a tough year after coming out of hospital in February, however,I am managing and sober.

Pulmonary Hypertension
Has anyone else here been diagnosed with Pulmonary Hypertension? I have had two Right-heart Catheterizations. The first showed pressure of 60 and the second one showed pressure of 74. So obviously the disease is progressing. I would just like to talk with someone one else who has it so we can commiserate

Rivaroxaban or Apixaban
The clinical pharmacist at my GP practice gave me a choice between Rivaroxaban or Apixaban. I chose Rivaroxaban simply because you only have to take it once a day and I can take it with my other tablets at breakfast. I should add I have acid reflux which is well controlled if I don't eat anything silly

Pulmonary function testing
Just curious, for those who have had pulmonary embolisms, did your pulmonologist send you for a pulmonary function test? I am going for one next month, and am not sure if he is testing for any complications with the PEs I had in December, or monitoring if my asthma is under control?

Pfizer Vaccinated with APS/Gene Mutations & Pulmonary Embolisms
I was also diagnosed with APS in 2013 after a DVT in my right leg, a pulmonary
embolism
in each lung, and my heart was enlarged. Initially, I was put on Warfarin but my INR fluctuated far too much I got additional blood clots in my lungs.

Any thoughts on having a bleeding peptic ulcer and APS and Lupus Anticoagulant
I have just had a bleeding peptic ulcer cauterised and clipped. The doctor says it’s stonking! He has taken me off warfarin because of the danger of bleeding out. I have not been offered any other anticoagulant options so scary time as he does not want me on warfarin for a week. Any thoughts on his thoughts

Piriformis Syndrome
Hi everyone I was diagnosed with PMR in March 2020, started on 15 mg. Reduced by 1mg each month, had to return to 10 mg in January 2021. Decreasing slowly and now down to 8.5mg. Towards the end of January Piriformis pain came back, I’d experienced the same thing in October 2020. Have been doing

I have PMR and due to Steroid induced pulminary embolism, I'm on Warfarin. Antibiotics affect INR levels. Can Covid vaccinations affect INR?

Still breathing
Ex smoker (2 years quit) ex pulmonary
embolism
. Breathing poor but spirometry OK. What I want to know is: if you have
embolism
with infarction does that mean you have lost a percentage of lung function? If yes then why don't they tell you how much? Anyone know?

They just didn’t understand how fatigue affects me, or my balance (since I had a stroke event), or my strength issues or my breathlessness issues (that actually led to a Pulmonary

a few months after the hearing), at all, they were only interested in my joint pains! Such numbs culls.

Had my vaccine yesterday. I’m on W&W since I was diagnosed February 2020. I feel no one seems to know how much protection we CLLers have????
I had the Oxford vaccine, I have had no side effects which I’m surprised as I normally have a bad reaction to the flu jab painful arm and swollen. I asked the nurse if it would give me any protection with having CLL she said you should have some protection? Any one else have a reaction to the Oxford
