Guest guest Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 I want to thank you guys for being here. Life gets so hectic with my many health issues that I feel like I am bombarded with the mental anguish that it brings along with it. Well, I wanted to tell you guys that I may be off of blood thinner in 2 weeks!!!! Yea! Salads and green beans! I miss them so. Green veggies have vitamin k, which is bad to eat when your on blood thinners. I saw the hematologist for the first time Monday and he says that the gene I have doesn't really cause blood clots so I am so happy. He said he thinks it was being on the birth control patch and having my ankle fused and in a cast that really caused my blood clots. I really need to get off cumadin because I can't stop bleeding since Christmas. My uterus isn't healing because my blood is so thin. I am losing a lot of blood. If he say I must stay on it and I don't stop bleeding, I will have to get a hysterectomy. I am not ready for that even if I don't bear a child. I was told by my gyn that I can not risk having a baby with the gene because it makes the chance of blood clot double. I am going to go back to her and tell him what the hematologist said about the gene being common and see what she says. Out of all these things, not being able to bear children really hurts. I am a total mess. I spent time with my sis in law and 2 nephews on tuesday. One is 3 and other is 3 months. They are just so cute. I will put up a picture of them in my Stillsnet photo album. I am glad I am back. You all are great to me, even when I can't be here sometimes. I feel like the doctors is a full time job. The dragon has got a good hold on me too. Thank you for being so kind and warm. I love you guys! Sharon xxxooo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
