The 7 days worth of lonovox (the injectable) was 1200. I didn't have to pay for it. It was crazy. But I'm on xeralto now not warfarin. So I don't have to worry about what I eat or anything. But I will be on it for the rest of my life. One clot was putting strain on the right side of my heart and there were so many it's crazy. I am luck to be alive.Wow, sorry to hear. Glad you didn't need the up the groin procedure. Happy you are OK.
Most shocking about the story is...
Full bush? Really?
I hope you have decent insurance, that injectable blood thinner used to cost $700 a week (or month?) I forget which. I was on it for the first couple years after getting home and was always a battle with insurance to cover it.
I'm sure someone talked to you about this already but you'll want to avoid some foods and drinks-
Warfarin diet What foods should I avoid? - Mayo Clinic
- Kale

I had none of the usual risk factors. I don't smoke, hadn't taken trips or a long sedentary period. They even checked my blood for genetic reasons. The only things that could have caused it were obesity and birth control pills. Both of which I've had for a while. I've always been big and I've been on and off the pill since I was 16. They had no reason as to why it happened other than that. Before the incident I was a relatively healthy 29 year old. They don't usually get blood clots, especially in the quantity I did. They were in every lobe of my lungs, upper, lower, everywhere.Sounds terrible. Sorry you had to go through that, even though it could have been much worse.
Has anybody said anything regarding the root cause of all those clots? Because that just ain't normal. And this is personal medical information, but you know, curiosity makes me ask even though I surely don't have to get an answer.
Glad you're still with us!
