Hi Sue
Iwas diagnosed with multiple clots in my chemo arm this week and have been injecting with Clexane twice a day since Wednesday. Apparently you cannot take the tablet form once on chemo and the injections are absorbed quickly and very effective. Ive also been told that it will take 3 months but maybe in a few weeks the injections will only have to be daily and the pain will be reduced. My arm is extremely painful at the momemt.
Ilve been told it could be from my mastectomy just over two months ago or from the chemo (ive only had two rounds so far). No one can be sure. So for my next 4 rounds they will be using my surgery arm as they have no choice. Anyway apparently lots of people in the normal population are on clexane and it is a very effective drug. I also would in interested if anyone has either of our experiences. My oncologist says he sees this all the time. Thanks Annmaree
