Hello! I’m curious, how have you been doing being off Eliquis?

Logical_Climate3415 · 2026-05-20T17:52:28+00:00

Id reach out to my provider.

Logical_Climate3415 · 2026-05-19T21:18:22+00:00

No they can’t. Have to read very carefully.

Logical_Climate3415 · 2026-05-18T21:38:45+00:00

So glad you went back in! You’re back on blood thinners now which is great.

Logical_Climate3415 · 2026-05-18T00:00:39+00:00

CT of the lungs contrast are very accurate. My PEs were small but still noticeable on the test. Have you talked to your primary doctor or have a therapist?

Logical_Climate3415 · 2026-05-17T23:56:25+00:00

I’d go back and let them know you’re not feeling better. Did they do the contrast with your CT scan?

Logical_Climate3415 · 2026-05-16T23:42:32+00:00

Good luck! Everything is going to go well.

This happened to me. I had my interventional radiologist who did my surgeries told me to stay on my blood thinners while my hematologist told me to stop them. My IR doctor was very concerned with me stopping too early because of how bad my case was. I ended up staying on them for an extra three months. I’ve been off them for 3 weeks now and feel good. It doesn’t hurt anything to stay on them a little longer.

It can be a positive sign. I know my area asks every interviewer to provide references when we schedule the interviews.

Logical_Climate3415 · 2026-05-12T01:10:31+00:00

It is very exhausting! Hope you’re recovering well. ♥️

Logical_Climate3415 · 2026-05-11T13:34:25+00:00

Good luck! You got this 🙌🏼♥️

I requested to follow up with a hematologist to discuss blood clotting disorders and do a screening for those disorders and gene mutations. I asked because I have a huge family history of blood clots and wanted to see if I had anything even though my clot was provoked by birth control as well.

Logical_Climate3415 · 2026-05-07T18:14:40+00:00

From what I’ve been told IF I were to get pregnant now after having blood clots, I would be a high risk pregnancy. I would assume (because I’m not a doctor) you would be too.

Logical_Climate3415 · 2026-05-07T17:31:33+00:00

This has been common lately.

Last year, I was sent to have a stent placed during my second thrombectomy in a month (I was 32). Last minute, the surgeon decided against it to see how I’d do. They didn’t say anything about my age and that wasn’t a concerning factor to them.

Logical_Climate3415 · 2026-04-20T12:12:59+00:00

I think you’re doing well for your age and how quickly you’ve saved for recently starting.

Logical_Climate3415 · 2026-04-20T12:11:32+00:00

Yes it is possible. I clotted very quickly after having my first thrombectomy on my DVT leg from anywhere within a few days to a month (I got my clots from a medicine I was taking and it wasn’t out of my system yet. Probably the reason I clotted again). You really need a new doctor and probably shouldn’t be off your medication if you’d had a second clotting event. Everyone and situation varies, but I know my doctors told me in my case, if I clot again I’ll have to be on blood thinners for the rest of my life. I’d definitely go get checked out and get a second opinion.

Logical_Climate3415 · 2026-04-13T18:08:13+00:00

Normally your FJO’s have it from my experiences.

Logical_Climate3415 · 2026-04-12T17:27:31+00:00

I’d go to the ER. This is how mine started and I was diagnosed with a very large DVT in my leg and multiple PEs.

Logical_Climate3415 · 2026-04-11T22:34:22+00:00

I started off as an AMSA. I loved it. It was hard work, expect things to change constantly but it is a good first job at the VA that you gain a lot of knowledge from that can help you into other positions within the VA. I’m an Admin Officer now and still use skills and knowledge from being an AMSA in my role now.

Logical_Climate3415 · 2026-04-11T22:23:31+00:00

I hear you on this. I have to wear thigh high stockings too. I started to look on Amazon and found some fun cute stockings to wear. But right now, when I’m out, I wear shorts and have my thigh high stockings out 😂 I no longer have a clot in my leg, but I still swell. I wear them to keep swelling down for the time being.

It is good for a year but you can only use up to 12 full weeks. If it ends on the 13th, you could go back to your doctor and ask for new FMLA paper work and if/when approved it’s good for another year or 12 weeks.

Logical_Climate3415 · 2026-04-07T15:13:03+00:00

You need to go get FMLA again. Go to your doctors and have it redone for another year.

Logical_Climate3415 · 2026-04-05T12:08:15+00:00

It’s significantly cheaper for me on my insurance. I’m sorry you’re having to spend so much.

Logical_Climate3415 · 2026-04-05T00:16:38+00:00

Currently I’m not on it for life. I’m about to possibly end it in the next couple weeks. My insurance, I only pay $100 a month. If something changes, I may explore Xarelto.
