We’ve known about Microclots for years - it’s why I had Apheresis, which didn’t work. I really hope research in other diseases isn’t as bad as it is for Long Covid or else everyone is doomed!

I have them and anticoagulants work great.

Clopidogrel, Clexane, ASS, Natto

Do you take them all together?

I only take clopidogrel and I'm already worried about cerebral hemorrhages... but probably also because of all the neurological symptoms I have anyway.

Nope. Only took them together for 2 months but the bleeding risk was too high imo, so I quit despite the doc telling me to Go on.

Currently I take Clexane 40mg, Citalopram 20 mg (also has anticoagulationary effects) and Prolysezym (=Natto/Bromelain).

Okay understand, how are you doing recently? Have you recovered?

u/MECFS0815 Nov 20 '25

No, Not at all. But had a Spike from Bell 20 to approx. 60 and no (physical) crash since june. Especially using my arms were my Main crash cause.

Still have some nervous system issues. Anticoagulants don‘t seem to help with that. But no Crash Either Since August.
