Hey guys

I hope you are all well.

Are you suffering of vte 6 years ago and husband on anticoagulants for the past 6 years, but recently reduced dose from I should be taking through to terrible side effects.

Currently I'm on the 150 mg Pradaxa dose, today due to severe stress and upset I went out and smoked tobacco but feel paranoid something Is going to happen.

When the DVT and PE happened the drs didn't do enough investigation into the cause so I still don't know if it was unprovoked or not.

Am I doing a very dangerous thing by smoking occasionally like this? Please help I feel worried.

    Hi Adame76. Since I don't know what DVT or PE is, I don't have a clue. If you use the 

    ?name of the disease, then I could look it up online. I get all my advice online for anything I am worried about and that I haven't already asked my doctor or hematologist.  Best wishes, harrishill
