- Hi! I am 2 1/2 years out from having a PE in my lung when I was 19 weeks pregnant. My doctors believe it was completely due to my pregnancy. My son is just turning 2 and I have been off blood thinners since he was 3 months. I have been feeling...
- Almost 2 years ago I had a PE when I was 19 weeks pregnant. I was on blood thinners until around 2 months after my baby was born. I recovered well and everything has been fine since except for leftover anxiety that keeps rearing its ugly head.I live...
- Hi everyone! I haven't been on this board in ages! Almost two years ago I had a pulmonary embolism while I was 19 weeks pregnant. Since then things have been pretty good (after all the initial anxiety anyway) and now I barely think about it...
- I gad a PE about 4 years ago due to pregnancy. Pre-PE I had anxiety and have managed to control it but lately because of other circumstances anxiety has popped up and of course my mind goes directly to blood clot. So last night I was in bed and woke...
- Hi Everyone,I saw my doctor yesterday to get the results of my blood tests. Everything came out clear except my Factor VIII levels were high. The doctor told me that could be caused by anything: fighting a cold, inflammation and such but there...
- I had a PE 7 months ago when I was pregnant. Was on anticoagulants for 7 months and have been taken off. Went to see my hematologist for follow-up yesterday and she said it was most likely pregnancy related but since I had had two miscarriages...
- Just a quick question. I had PE during pregnancy and have just come off Lovenox. It's been one week and my nerves are shot. Of course I'm trying to calculate my risk for recurrence which anxious minds are usually fixated with. I am adopted and...
- I had a PE seven months ago when I was 19 weeks pregnant. It has been a crazy roller coaster ride but I've finally come to the place where I have stopped my anticoagulants. It's been 5 days now and physically I feel great. Emotionally, not as...
- I had a PE almost six months ago when I was 19 weeks pregnant. I have now had my bouncing baby boy and am due to come off anticoagulants in 11 days.To put it mildly I'm petrified. Don't get me wrong. The thought of not injecting myself two times...
- Hi Everyone,I had a PE almost four months ago when I was 19 weeks pregnant. I am now 35 weeks and everything is going well except for the fact that this little stubborn one is in the breech position. My OB says that there is only a 5% - 10% chance...
- So I had a PE about 2 1/2 months ago. My legs were scanned in the hospital and no DVTs were found. I am currently 7 months pregnant and am on Lovenox shots of 60 mg twice daily. I am dealing with some pretty considerable anxiety (although it seems...
- Hello:)I recently was diagnosed with a large PE in my right lung. On the doctor's notes it said "pulmonary embolism with mile RV strain". Of course now that I've calmed down a bit (and I stress "a bit") about the actual event I'm reading more...
- Hi. I am 25 weeks pregnant and was diagnosed with a PE in my right lung six weeks ago. The only thing that clued me into the fact that something was wrong was I was very short of breath which I had attributed to the fact that I was pregnant. ...
- I feel like my mother has tangled me in her web and there is no way of escape no matter what I do. I have done so much research and exercises to try to get out of this trap but her strings just seem to get tighter and tighter. I thought I was...
- I am stuck in the part of my recovery where I work through the pain. I had read and read and read and intellectually I know what my issues are, what I struggle with and why I got to the place where I am now. I am starting to understand my...
