Hi Everyone,

I have went back in the archives and read a lot about Hyper-Coagulation and Heparin and the other things folks are using (Rx as well as alternatives)

Besides the testing,
WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF HYPERCOAGULATION?

I have been having a lot of muscle and hip and leg pain but seems the worse in the a.m. and is not a constant but does hurt a lot. Feels better at times when I can move around for a while?

Thanks,

Does this mean your blood clots more easily or less?

I understood I had hypercoagulation a year ago.

Lately when I get cut it takes a long time to stop bleeding and it opens up and bleeds again hours later.

I thought thick blood clotted more easily?

I've also noticed my blood has gone from dark red to bright red.

Marz,

When the blood starts to coagulate throughout the body, it depletes the body of its platelets and coagulation factors (which are responsible for stopping any bleeding). So paradoxically, disseminated coagulation makes bleeding more difficult to stop and can lead to hemorrhaging

Thanks Everyone,

I was just wondering as I have muscle pain in my legs (thighs) and other areas that seem to wax and wane through out the day.
So I did not know if it was a Herx to the Zithro. I am on or the Lyme itself or coagulation or even toxins?

So hard to know what makes us hurt sometimes?
