Looking for advice on skin abnormality
Hi everyone. Hoping someone can offer some advice on a mark I have found on my shin just above my ankle. I first noticed it less than a week ago, just before the weekend as about the size of a pin head, very red so it stood out. No lump, no itching, not hot - just a tiny very red mark. But over the

HAS ANYBODY HAD THEIR ASPIRIN & CLOPIDOGREL STOPPED IN FAVOUR OF NOAC (New Oral Coagulants) ??
This is my situation. Following recent tests and Holter testing, my Cardiac Consultant feels one of the NOAC's : Apixaban/Rivaroxaban/Dabigatran, new generation anticoagulants, would offer me better protection against a further stroke than my current medication of 5 years standing.

haematoma -update
As suggested, I got in touch with my haem who told me to go immediately to the hospital. I didn't see her face- to- face but was seen first by a junior doctor and then had a blood test. She reported back to the haem, sending photos. The outcome was I have a course (3 days) of Tranexamic Acid (2000 mg

What to do ….
Warning - long post! I’m not sure what I’m really asking here, or if I’m just looking for a sounding board. At my appointment last month my haematologist told me my ET had now changed to MF, after a bmb and NSG testing. He also said I had markers for high risk for leukaemia. I didn’t ask what the markers

Newly diagnosed angina
Just recently been diagnosed with angina after an episode of pain while running up a hill. I'd always thought the shoulder pain was connected to my brachial plexus pain, which was also diagnosed at same time (had it for years) and I was prescribed Gabapentin for this. The thing is this then cleared

Haematoma
I have ET and at my last blood test (2 months ago) my platelets were well-controlled at 459. In the past I had an occlusion of a vein in my left eye (2016) and have lost sight in the central panel, and last year I had blood clots in both lungs as a result of which my daily 75 mg aspirin was augmented

Minoca heart attack
Hi there, I am new to this world but would be grateful for some insight to help my mum. A week ago mum was admitted to hospital for what they are saying is Minoca.

Random question to you all….I have ET, I’m on Pegasys and have been for a few years, I also take aspirin. This year I’ve been bitten a lot (I have always been a tasty meal for little bugs!) and whilst I try not to scratch the bites we all know that sometimes it’s not possible. I’ve found that my skin
