    Hi I just saw your answer in my page about blood clot. I had pulmonary embolism.
    I'm going to have a filter planted in my vein to prevent for another blood clot before my double mastectomy.
    I take coumadin and stop Levanox 2 days ago because my INR test now is 2.5.
    I'm also taking tamoxifen for breast cancer.
    Have you had mastectomy?
    How long you had to wait to have breast reconstruction?
    Thanks for help me.
    I need support and friends I'm from Baltimore (Rosedale)
    Thanks
    Sylvia

    Iminnema, thx, that sheds a lot of light on the images I had of the port. I knew it was placed in the chest but not much more. How do they get that thing in without pain ?

    Hi Iminnema! Thank you for following me, it seems we have a whole lot in common. You're very young to have breast cancer, as was I...when I was diagnosed at 35. We live in the same state too, so maybe I can help you out a bit more than usual if you have any questions...because, I do know some of the local resources for help. Have a great day and feel free to contact me anytime! :)
