I have been back in hospital since Wednesday, one day after I got home. I was home for 12 hours max before I had to come back as the rivaroxaban treatment was failing and they found I didn't have enough INR in my blood which is the anticoagulant to help these clots stop getting bigger.

I have been taught how to do my own clexean injections so I can look at going he tomorrow (Monday). I have learned to do them very well for someone who is very sqemish and couldn't even watch my bloods be done let alone injections into my stomach twice a day.

I'm also on warfrin tablets but they too are not working so I'm unsure if the tablet forms of blood thinners just don't work on my weird body. So I may need to self inject for quite some time to make sure I don't have any new clots, so these previous clots don't grow or move towards my heart.

It's been a very long two weeks and I can not wait to go home

Thank you for keeping up with my journey ❤️💜
