Pulmonary Embolism
"Long story short--left hospital in continual pain labelled as anxiety only to return two days later. They found the clot thanks to CT with contrast. Had no problems with Lovenox at the hospital but during treatment someone decides to put me on Xarelto. I&#039;ve been sick every day--felt as if I&#039;m dying. Pleaded with hospital to switch medications now labeled a drug seeker--for seeking a different blood thinner? Pleaded with doctors and PCP &amp; they&#039;re sticking with the Xarelto. I have a visible rash on my face &amp; excruciating pain in limbs and back. After Spitting up blood &amp; swollen tongue, discontinued. Tossed the medication. Was told to start back on the Xarelto. The problem isn&#039;t Xarelto. It&#039;s the doctors who refuse to listen to their patients."
