I've had blood clots but not on my legs, the pain is very sharp !! Have any of you had clots and have to take the blood thinner for the rest of your life ?
Hi Irma, Yes I had emergency surgery for an arterial blood clot behind my knee and then developed some in my ankles, so yes on warfarin for life as well as Plavix, Have been since 1999 and doing fine. Just have to test a lot to make sure you are on the correct dose as it changes. Hope you are OK.
No but make sure you go to the hospital I'll be praying for you God bless you
I had one in my right lung was put on warfarin for six months then weened off. I was told that if I got another one I would be taking blood thinners for the rest of my life. It all depends. We are all different. This blood clot happened before I was diagnosed with Lupus. Cause having the symptoms and no one knowing what I was suffering from I believe it started in 2004 was diagnosed in 2012 by a Pulmonologist God bless him always and abundantly.
Thanks everyone !!
No I hope you feel better soon God bless you 🙏
