Has anyone had blood clots in the brain and been on coumadin. Also, I have very puffy feet, Can this be helped??? Thanks for all your help, hugs, kathy On Hercetin/taxol. |
Re: Blood clots
Here's a link to the patient instructions regarding Coumadin posted on the website of National Library of Medicine (National Institute of Health.)
http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/e...ons/000292.htm Puffy feet can have many causes. I would check with the doctor to see if is caused by reduced heart function (thus not able to pump the fluid efficiently back to the heart), side effect of the medicine you take, or other issues. http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/c...fects/swelling Hope you are feeling better every day. |
Re: Blood clots
For my swollen feet and further leg clot prevention, you can get mild compression hose at walmart, or drug stores, that is what I wear to decrease the daytime swelling along with frequent breaks during the day with my feet elevated. I agree with the others please see your MD's or onc to figure out reason why! Good lucck
