Yes I know this board is supposed to be about Q related content; however, I don't think there are any other forums on the internet with people who are smart enough to answer my question. I don't trust my doctor because I think she's compromised by Big Pharma.
Awhile back after taking an ultrasound test, they told me the blood clots in my lower left leg have finally dissolved after taking Warfarin for 12 years. But they want to keep me on Warfarin as a preventive anti-clot drug forever. My main concern with this regiment is the possibility of suffering fatigue from taking the drug. I don't know how it causes fatigue; however, it's still my number one suspect. If a far simpler drug such as aspirin can be an effective treatment at preventing blood clots without the debilitating side effects of fatigue, I'm all for it. Please express your thoughts.
I'm not an expert but I guess it would be common sense to first define what the dosage of aspirin and its side effects would be at that dosage. I would start with the heart dosage currently on the market. I thinks it is 81mg or 81mcg? I would also check drug interactions between warfrin and aspirin. Does your Dr. warn you personally not to take aspirin and the warfrin together? Then, assuming you have your INR checked regularly, just replace a few dosages of warfarin with a dose of aspirin between the tests. Do the same pattern of replacement for a few rounds of testing. Once your sure your INR numbers are stable, up a round that has more replacements. I encourage you to do the interaction and side effects research first, noting any questions you run across. Before consulting your vascular Dr. Blood clots are nothing to screw with. It may be a lot of work but if TSHTF you'll be glad you did the research.
Don't know anon, I pray you find your answer
Look into serrapeptase, nattokinase and lumbrokinase. These break down blood clots and other junk in your system.
This is a question you need to bring to your doctor. My guess is that something else is driving the fatigue, but that's up to your doctor to diagnose. If she put you on warfarin, she's got a good reason and you need to stay on that therapy. It is prescribed to reduce your chance of a blood clot and death. This is a life-saving medication. In some cases, they can put you on similar drugs like Eliquis or Xarelto, but that has to come from your doctor. Aspirin alone is not a substitute.
If you don't trust your doctor, then you need to find a new doctor who you do trust. Again, no one can diagnose you over the internet like this. The only one who can look at all of the relevant factors is your healthcare team. This question has to go to them.
I had to self-inject Lovenox twice a day during pregnancy and I was also told to take a baby aspirin as well, if I remember rightly. Would a leg muscle contractor thing help? I had one attached after having my son, to prevent clots. It was hard to sleep through, though.
I can't comment from personal experience (other than dowing some of it and feeling nothing) but you may also look into horse chestnut, butchers broom, etc.
Alcohol is a natural anticoagulant. Try a nice glass of good red wine once a day. No prescription needed.
try raw garlic
Aspirin is far less potent, in terms of clot reducing power, than warfarin. But it is a blood thinner, so it is a potential substitute. Tons of aspirin will lead to other problems, though: a close family member took aspirin heavily for a while and suffered stomach ulcers that she blamed on the aspirin.
NAC is also a blood thinner, and I'm unaware of side effects, so it might be a better choice. You might get a better answer if you could explain more about how and why you got the clots to begin with, and why it took 12 years to clear them up.
As far as not trusting your doctor is concerned, sounds like it's time to change doctors. Try looking (I use Google maps for this kind of search) for a naturopathic doctor, or integrative medicine doctor, who usually have sacrificed a lot of pharma reward money to practice according to their conscience. If you're lucky they are covered by insurance, but often you have to pay cash.
God bless.
It all depends on why you clotted in the first place. If you have some problem where your blood clots easily due to certain factors, or lack thereof, aspirin is not nearly as effective as warfarin
You have to stop the production of spike proteins. Or at least reduce them.
Vit D, Zinc, Vit C, One of these [HCQ, Ivermectin]
Zinc in the cells kills RNA reproduction. (Spike protein production)
Zinc can only get into cells in small amounts. [HCQ, Ivermectin] Allow more in.
Flush your system. Look up: "Sulforaphane Dr. Rhonda Patrick."
Flush your system more: bromelain. From pineapple, is a meat tenderizer. Should help break down clots that might have formed. (Worth a try)
They want to ban NMN. This helps with aging and blood flow.
They want to ban nicotine, e-cigs I think. Blocks ace2 receptors in lungs, harder to get real covid.
Search this board more. There are hundreds of older posts with far better info.
Generally speaking, you shouldn't mix blood thinners without monitoring the results with blood tests. They don't all work the same way. Quercetin is a blood thinner, so is blackseed oil. NAC can potentially other clotting inhibitors. I was taking all three in moderation, cut myself badly, was asked many times in the ER if I was taking blood thinners. Had stitches and continued to bleed for three days. Stopped taking them--my blood was looking pretty watery. Enough of a good thing can be too much.
I think I would take black Cumin seed oil to keep the blood from clotting...it is VERY impressive. I know aspirin does the same but I prefer the BCSO and take it most days...always check out uses, side effects and drug interactions.
Maybe cut the dosage in 1/2 and take a baby aspirin.
But I'm not a doctor.
Warfarin is actually rat-poison. I had a blood clot because of a genetic defect - I have two extra ribs.
They put me on warfarin for about 3 months, but couldn't get the dose right. I went in every week for a blood draw, and they kept changing the does. At the worst times my vision was red and I had spontaneous bruises because the dose was way too high.
I hated that shit. They removed the rib, and now I'm fine.
When I was in the hospital they had some other med which I had to inject into the fatty tissue of my midrift. That worked great and had no side effects that I noticed.
I'm sorry I don't remember the name of the med. But there are alternatives. And I would much rather do the painful jab to my belly than what I went through with Warfarin.
that belly fat injection was heperin.
Nattokinase is an important, natural substance to use to lower triglicerides (sp) and also help people get off aspirin. You cannot take natto and aspirin at the same time. We are starting natto at my house, to lower triglicerides for my son so that he does not need to take the evil statin drug which we flat out refuse!!!!
Heperin was injected subcontainously in hospital.
