Going to the emergency room finally

I called my doctor again to let him know I threw up blood and he still said see him on Monday. Its time to disobey his orders. I'll keep you all posted.

I have DVT and pulmonary embolisms presently on coumadin. This is so scary and I must admit 6 weeks and I can still barely walk from the pain in my calf. All my mind can think of is the pain, subsequently I can barely eat. I am definitely struggling.

I had Lovenox injections for ten days ,too. It depends on who your surgeon is.

Tanyamann32. I know it's been awhile since you've written this, but can you please tell me what they did about your bleeding ulcer? I have another one now and it's bad too. He only gives me carafate liquid to take 4 times a day. It's not gone yet. I know you know how they hurt. Would you please tell me what they did for you and how are you doing now? Thank you, Sharon


I was on Lovenox injections for ten days post op.


I have to be on lovenox shots for 4 weeks postop. My surgery isn't until 6/21/17. I had bilateral pulmonary embolisms a couple years back and to this day no one knows why I had them. They were awful and hurt a lot. I had to see a hematologist to get me cleared for surgery. My surgeon usually puts everyone on the shots for 2 weeks, but the hematologist said for me to be on them for 4 weeks just to be on the safe side. I'm all for it.

I had emergency surgery and 8 months later I have to see a gastrologist because my stomach is hurting but I am now on coumadin because I have a DVT snd bilateral pulmonary embolism.
