    • About Me

      Hello, I'm a 44 yr old mother of 3. I have 2 son's at home, ages 4 & 6. And a grown/ married 23 yr old daughter. During my pregnancy almost 5 yrs ago I developed extensive clotting that started behind my knee and went up to the top of my thigh. I have Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) and have had reclotting on coumadin. I just recently reclotted and started on Lovenox injections last week. I was a long time member of another DVT support group through MSN http://groups.msn.com/BloodClotSurvivorsDVTPE , but it is going to be closing in Feb. I'm hoping that some of the members will join Daily Strength with me. I've been watching this website and am thrilled at how active it is. I look forward to getting to know all of you! May 2009 be a new start for all of us!!! Take Care! Barb

      Hey Barb! How are you doing? Things are going well on my end. I'm continuing to experience INR levels within the range my doctor mandates. I'm back to my normal routine and will begin an exercise routine this week for weight loss and improved health. I'll definitely be keeping in touch. Type @ ya soon.
