Hug
Thank you. Am ok apart from the two needles every day for clexane! Have started the warfarin again and get INR done tomorrow so may be able to stop jabs then. Have had last of thrombophilia screen last week as well as a load of strange ones ordered by my new haematologist. Got local appointment at the end of January and new haematologist said he would write to me with any results that he gets. See him in March to decide re life long warfarin. How are you off warfarin? I managed one A/E visit and 2 GP ones in the first 4 weeks! How about you? Take care and keep me posted Kate xx

Close Pulmonary Embolism
I had a Pulmonary Embolism in New York City on 8th April 2008 whilst on holiday from the UK. It has been an extremely traumatic time and life has not been too kind to my family lately with my mum getting diagnosed with breast cancer and having a mascetomy a month after I flew back from NYC. My Uncle then died whilst my mum was in hospital and my Nan was told she had a shadow on her lung. Then we moved house all at the same time. On warfarin until Oct 20 2008 - then will have tests
