I was rushed to the hospital with blood clots in my lungs. The Doc said there were multiple clots at least 18 ,and it was a very dangerous situation. I am 79 yr old, female. after I came home I was put on this drug at first 10 mg twice a day,for a week, then 5mg twice a day for the past 9 months, I had no previous trouble with blood clots, am 135 lbs 5ft 5 inches tall .The drug has given me stomach pains and I am exhausted a lot, otherwise I have not been tested again for anything, since the Covid 19 virus shut our tiny rural clinic down for anything but covid, and the hospital was also the same !Read More Read Less
