Gosh, talk about springing a leak! So sorry you had such an ordeal, but your medical team sure takes good care of you.
My husband is a border-line "bleeder" and tends to get nose bleeds. Believe it or not, jello works wonders. It doesn't stop a bleed instantly of course, but will help prevent a recurrence if you eat some daily for a few days or so.
It's one of those folk medicine things, my mother-in-law told me about it.
Thanks for the update Maryanne
