Bleeding, preferably not.

[Aluminati]

After having a couple of heart attacks last month and a stent in, the drugs they have put me on has now tuned my blood to 0w 0

Being very hands on i now find the mildest of scratches takes hours to stop, a shaving cut taking 3 hours the other day !

Tried the stypic matches, useless, at the moment, have reverted to the good ol making tape routine, but not the best for shaving cuts.

Any solutions from those in the know ?

You on Warfarin ?

Avoiding alcohol is a major thing if so.

It does make minor cuts and scrapes a total ballache, but you just get used to it.

No, Not Warfarin, but same type i guess. Alchohol and smokes drastically reduced anyway.

I’m £500 a month better off, but think i’ll be spending on Elastoplast shares

Thanks for the reply, appreciated.

You want some Yunnan Baiyao - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yunnan_Baiyao

It's absolutely amazing at stopping bleeding from cuts and grazes.

I've three stents and take blood thinning medication. I now bruise more easily and grazes and cuts take longer to heal. None are self-inflicted however, I've had a beard since I was at school.

Raise this with your GP, maybe the medication dose can or needs adjusting.
