In one study, 50 women with thrombophilia (including 20 factor V Leiden heterozygotes) and recurrent pregnancy loss were treated with enoxaparin throughout 61 subsequent pregnancies. The live birth rate was 75% with enoxaparin prophylaxis, compared to 20% in prior untreated pregnancies [Brenner et al 2000].
On the 22nd post-operative day, due to severe pain in the epigastric zone, her doctor ordered an abdominal CT. It turns out that portal vein and superior mesenteric vein are thrombosed. They put her on enoxaparin and wanted her to rest for 5 days until the next control. She refused to be put on heparin or warfarin because of her history of gastrointestinal bleeding and recent surgery. We've been told thrombectomy would be extremely risky, given her medical history.
I am 27 weeks pregnancy and have dvt, start to using CLEXANE(ENOXAPARIN) I am really worried is there any harm to my baby

I wad injecting in the stomach but started developing scar tissue and it was getting sorer and sorer.
continue through with warfarin, or to stop the warfarin and bridge in between with enoxaparin or heparin (as snconorm had done).

So continuing through with warfarin seems to be the newer strategy.
What would NOT be done is to stop anticoagulation altogether.
Yes I'm on the generic enoxaparin. I was on it with my first and forth (all 4 pregnancies were miscarriages). Now I'm on it again since 3 1/2 weeks pregnant.
I am 30 weeks pregnant. In the last pregnancy (2007), I had still birth at 34 weeks due to IUGR.
During the present pregnancy, my doctor has recommended aspirin and Low Molecular Weight Heparin (like Clexane) for the entire pregnancy period. I am regularly taking these both medicines. Regularly undergoing Ultrasound regular scan and Doppler scan. Till now the growth of fetus is good and is better than the last pregnancy.
But my platelet count is coming down, now its around 160,000.
For the most part, weight gain is simple mathematics, you take in m ore calories than you burn and the excess is stored in fat cells. Your mother can do some sort of exercise to burn calories, she just needs to watch her heart rate and work load. Just moving burns calories so a simple walk will do it. If walking is too much, some time moving in a pool is very helpful.
In any case, she needs to cut back on her calories to match what she burns in a day.
Shelf preservatives, namely high fructose corn syrup. It is in breads, cereals, and pop. All of which kids and adults eat. It is in Subway breads (except the honey oat) and all fast food breads.
And lack of movement - and I don't mean exercise. I mean, everything is automated now. Washing machines, dishwashers, vacuums, etc. And we drive everywhere versus walking. We park close to the entrances versus walking a bit.
I agree that it is not just food portions.
I believe it is the culture.

For his age he needs approximately 1800 calories a day to grow. Limit time in front of the TV or non-active-video games. There have been studies showing the longer the length of time a child sit in front of the TV, the greater the weight gain. Limit high sugar drinks/snacks, and try replacing with low fat milk/yogurt, fruit, air popped popcorn, or low-fat cheese.
I am 21 years old and have struggled with obesity since I was a kid. I am 274 lbs as of right now with high blood pressure. I want to get in shape and lose the excess fat. I dont look healthy at all and my family has a history of obesity and many health problems come with it. I want to prevent these health issues and start living/eating/working out right. I have watched the biggest loser and have always tried to lose weight but I can't or I don't know how.
ve been found to have extremely low cortisol and have been following the dosing chart on *************************. Basically every 3 or 4 days you increase by 2.5mg if you haven't seen it.
Initially I was feeling slightly better on one dose of 2.5mg each morning then a day or two after being on two doses of 2.5mg I started to feel very spaced out, dizzy, exhausted and confused.
I read somewhere that ideally you should raise your dose every 2 weeks or so.
Would you agree with this?
I have just started takeing care of my mother in law who is in stage 4 breast cancer and her dr gave her Morphine SO4 IR 15mg one tablet every 3 hours and Morphine SO4 ER 30ENDO one tablet every 12 hours and I am confused on how to give them to her, she says I can give them to her at the same time and I am worried about it causing an overdose and I am having a hard time reaching her dr for instruction on how to give it to her, do i give her one first and then wait a few hours to give the other
no, hypothyroidism is not an indication for obesity surgery.
Correcting the hypothyroidism may help a little, but the hypothyroidism is not likely the only cause of the weight. It is harder, however, to lose weight with untreated hypothyroidism.
Also, most surgeons would not do the bariatric (weight) surgery until the thyroid is corrected.
These findings are particularly salient in the current era in which the HCV epidemic and the obesity epidemic are running a collision course.[7] Indeed, obesity likely acts as a 2-hit cofactor that worsens other liver diseases, not just hepatitis C.[8] No future research will allow the opportunity to duplicate the findings of this report; therefore, this study represents a landmark piece of work that can be extrapolated to all liver diseases and that should change clinical practice.
We live in Romania - in Europe. My wife works in the public health, is head surgeon's mate, on the City central hospital surgical department. In a January last year we begin the treatment therapy for the hepatitis C onto the treatment of virus with a Rosch firm's products (interferon pegasys and ribavirin in dosage: pegasys 1 ampoule 180 micrograms /weeks and ribavirin 4 tablets of day).

Tinzaparin could be a cause for hair loss. In the case report that follows the alopecia, commonly called hair loss, was reversible with the switch to another low molecular weight heparin.

Hi, amongst the problems you mentioned, the most important ones are obesity and COPD. Obesity aggravates the COPD further. Blood oxygen levels are not a botheration at this time but you should concentrate on losing some weight. Weight reduction, if you are overweight or obese, is the optimal health strategy for patients who suffer from COPD. This can be done through a combination of diet, an increase in physical activity and sometimes medication.
