- Well, a few months back I bought an electric ladies razor and quite frankly, it's not doing it for me. My legs are in terrible condition and they used to be my best feature (laugh laugh).Any suggestions?I don't want to take the risk of using a razor...
- Hello everyone,I went "no contact" with both parents about 6 years ago. I was 61 years old and I was done with the alcoholism and the mental illness of my mother. Since that time my father has died and I have stopped all contact with my sister (the...
- Hi everyone,I usually take my 2mg Warfarin at 6PM every day. Last night I got up at 3:15 and noticed the pill was still in the pill box. I was over 9 hours late taking the dosage.Should I go back to taking it at 6PM tonight?That would mean that I...
- So my INR has been within range two whole weeks in a row.yayTook 2 months to get there.
- My INR has not been between 2-3 since I developed blood clot #3 on August 11. Last week it was 3.7 after a week's dosage of 3mg twice a week and 2 mgs the other 5 days. So, doctor says to just take 2mgs every single day for the past week. Just got...
- Hi everyone,After a month of erratic INR's, my INR was 2.9 last week. The doctor lowered the Warfarin dosage slightly.How often do you get tested if your INR has been stable for awhile?
- I didn't keep my records from three years ago when I had DVT #2.I wish I had but we moved and I NEVER thought in a million years I'd be a person to have another DVT. Was I wrong.If I had kept the calendar of my Warfarin dosage at that time, I would...
- So, three years ago I had clot #2. Doctor had a heck of a time trying to get my INR in range. At one point it went to 3.8 and I ended up with internal bleeding for 3 days.Exactly two weeks ago I was diagnosed with clot or clots #3. First INR was...
- Well, I was diagnosed with my 3rd blood clot last Tuesday. Horrors.My first INR was 2.0. I thought, hey. Not bad. Today the doc's office called and it shot up to 3.7. Three years ago I had internal bleeding for three days when my INR was 3.8.The...
- Now that I will become a lifer, I am wondering if I should go the "home testing" route. I realize it's very expensive initially but the thought of having blood taken from my hand for the rest of my life sickens me.Does anyone here do home testing?If...
- Hi everyone,Haven't posted here in ages. Past history of 2 DVT's, one in each leg 10 years apart.Last week I had itching on my left leg. I scratched and scratched and the next day my leg (on the right side) was red, there were 3 lumps under the skin...
- So, I went to the periodontist yesterday. Have been putting this off for nearly a year due to the fact that while I was pondering having the work done I developed my second blood clot.The periodontist told me that I should get approval from the...
- I started the blood work last week to determine if I have a blood disorder but as I posted here the person taking the blood out of my hand could not get enough to finish the job.I went back today and saw a different person. When I told her that it...
- I don't know if I asked this question recently but I took a car ride in mid-September that was about 5 1/2 hours each way with only one day between trips. I developed my second blood clot behind my knee about 7 weeks later. My internist, my vascular...
- So, I moved from NY to MA two weeks ago. As if that were not stressful enough I had to find a new doctor. My former internist told me to see a hematologist and I saw her today. My INR was good but she wanted to test for possible blood disorder. When...
