Hormona don't hurt anyone!

First pulmonary embolism you experience will change your mind, I promise ;)

Do you have to be careful with things like aspirin? I think that thins blood also?

Yep, I can't take anything but Tylenol. No aspirin, ibuprofen, Aleve, nothing. And if I have to take an antibiotic or any other meds at all, I have to call the hematologist to make sure they don't counteract, check blood to make sure, etc.

I seriously had no idea how involved this crap would be!

Nope, because they alone increase your risk for blood clots.

Wow i would have never thought... you always seemed pretty fit to me... sorry here that tho. you have any idea on what caused it, if you dont mind me asking.

let me know if its getting too personal. i dont mean to pry i am just curious.

No worries at all. It's a genetic disorder, my father has it as well. I never really thought twice about it until I got a blood clot back in August. If I'd had one or the other (clot or disorder), it wouldn't be as big of a concern. But because of the two, I'm a blood thinner lifer. Like l said, it's a pretty big pain in the butt. Lots of maintenance, no hormones (birth control, HRT when I'm older, etc), and meds every day - which I can't stand!

It's due to a blood clotting disorder. And since I've already had a blood clot too, I'm on medication for life. :hmph:

I've been getting it once a week because it's not been stable. Blood too thick, blood too thin, back and forth. Pain in my arse.

Find a small thing to change up your routine... something you can do for fun just to get away for an hour. Something you havent done in years ya used to really enjoy, maybe get the kids involved in it. could be something as simple as rollerskating... whatever..

i like to train to release stress... nothing like a little sparring and grappling to get your frustration out... also love getting beat up everynow and then. dont know why but i like getting hit. its humbling.
