I don't know if it worked

In Hospital

Had the IV while in the hospital

In-hospital IV drip for 6 days. INR was 1.1 upon release.

Did it's job while in the hospital

They put me on a low dose heparin drip from a catheter inserted into my main blood clot (which they accessed from a vein in my groin). This was part of an experimental procedure I participated in to remove the blood clots. The procedure was successful moving my left leg from being 80% occluded/blocked to 10% occluded/blocked after the procedure.

I was switched to twice daily heparin injections at about 7 months pregnant.

saved my life

Took 9 days to becomoe therapeutic

Took through IV in the hospital, don't recall many side effects.

only temporary thank god I couldn't poke that in my belly

Had it by IV 5 days in hospital
