You sound like my story! Two Moderna shots in 2020 followed by one Moderna booster around 2021. Then no more. I’m turning 73 in three days.
Got COVID on a cruise July a year ago. Lost smell and taste, but bounced back quickly. Then got COVID Round 2 in April 2024, just 9 months after Round 1. Bounced back quickly and had lots of energy. I hike a lot, usually 3-4 miles four or five times a week (up to 8 miles) with elevation gain 700 to 1,300 feet.
Then, about six weeks ago, all sorts of weird stuff started happening - skin problems on the soles of my feet, COVID fingers & toes, hives, vitiligo. Last Weds I suddenly and out of nowhere hit the wall on a favorite hike of 2.5 miles and 700 feet. Stopped at 200 yards and rested. Went another 200 yards and rested. Went another 200 yards and had to rest. I quit at that point and went to the hospital.
Multiple pulmonary embolisms confirmed on CAT Scan and elevated D-Dimer. Spent one night in the hospital and got two injections of anticoagulant, then started Eliquis the next morning after getting home. Doing the double-dose right now for the first week. I went for a 0.6 mile walk the day I got discharged, a 3 mile walk to town and back the next day, and a 3 mile hike the day after that with 380 feet climb.
The doc thinks it is a “provoked” clot episode caused by COVID. COVID is mainly a vascular disease and causes clots.
It’s so weird and scary — the WuFlu keeps on giving.
I have blood work done every 4 to 6 months. All organs are working normal. Is there a special test to detect blood clots?
As a #PureBlood, I’m happier every day with my decision while others have to live with nagging doubt and worry.
Yes. The one I mentioned.
D-dimer.
I will ask doctor to order d-dimer test next time. Buy he will probably ask if I have any symptoms. I do not have blood clot symptoms.
Have either of you looked into Nattokinase?
Perfectly normal........
YOU tell your doc what tests YOU want ... not the other way around.
I started reading about it after you recommended it a couple days ago. I’ve got a follow up w my GP on Weds and will ask her about it.
Got it. Thanks Jane!
Better visit the Kaufman Institute for Coincidence. They don’s ask pesky questions about vaccines.

I don’t want to say it was the vaxx but....
Ask Damar Hamlin.
“but keep reading about COVID being shed by people who have it or had it”
I was diagnosed with pulmonary thrombosis last month and I didn’t get the shot but my wife did. Both mt wife and son got cancer and blood clots. They have a treatment now where they go in from your femoral artery and suck the clots out. Amazing.
310 pounds is pretty tough on a body.
No. I’m off Eliquus so not sure if I need a thinner anymore.
I’m glad you’re OK. At one point, I almost shutdown to the point I thought I was dying and not fainting and I remember in my mind, I called out to Jesus. Went and sat down on the couch after I caught my myself and broke out in a sweat & had trouble breathing for a couple minutes. My doctor said I probably should have gone to the hospital but since I recovered in 30 minutes, I made a doctor’s appointment.
Glad you’re ok, too. That must have been very frightening.
I figured I was a goner right there on the trail.
The WuFlu shots must inevitably spawn a whole new category of Medicine.
