I have been doing really well recently - even though ive been back and fore the hospital as they think i had a TIA ( had a stroke many years ago from taking the Pill.)
I was feeling quite ood - I had loads of tests - they all came back fine :)
Apart from one from the eye doctor who found a clot behind my eye that he thinks could have been there for a long time :weep:
Anyway my consultant has now put me on warfarin - was fine for the first 2 weeks as i was only on 2mg - anyway last friday they upped it to 5mg and I have a blood test today to see if that is thinning my blood to the correct level.
Only problem is every since friday my HA has been in overdrive - over the last 2 das have also had lots of head rushes and diziness and i am now convinced my brain is bleeding (this can happen on warfarin)
Please can someone reassure me that im not going to die anytime soon
