Hi Guys,
I'm coming up to the end of my treatment on warfarin (pills to thin my blood following the clots in my lungs). I'm getting more and more stressed and worried about what might happen when I do finish it. Can't help thinking that as soon as it stops and my blood is back to its normal thickness, I'm going to get more clots and they'll kill me this time.
I know this is silly and I may as well walk around worried that I'm going to get run over by a bus every time I go out but I can't help it. It's really getting me down at the moment.
I have talked about it with my therapist and pyschiatrist but they all dismiss it. So what do I do??????!!!
Just feeling stupid again as I know that it's a silly thing to worry about really.
Emma.
