Ah, who cares about him As long as he wasn’t hurt from intimidation

How are you doing?

Is that for cholesterol or something?

Whatever it’s for, I pray that it has helped.

You’re here typing so that’s a good sign :)

But I am not sure what maladies blood thinner is used for.

And thanks for the valid explanation.

It was some very expensive new blood thinner that he liked much better than warfarin. Warfarin made his food taste bad. But in addition to the bruising the new one started causing him kidney problems so it was back to the warfarin.

Not a detailed picture but those types of bruises aren't from blood thinners.

Looks like they could have come from a "demonstration" of how a pair of channel-locks work.

Somebody wanted Mitch to listen while some things were being explained.

It might have been Elequis. The cost was something crazy like $3000 per month.

A lot of posts supporting one or the other.

I just don’t know enough about blood thinners to comment.

I do know about purposeful physical damage.

But without knowing about the other I’m on the sidelines i guess.

You seem to know about blood thinners.

Some say they can cause this some say they can’t.

As usual, a 100 percent agreement on a FR thread :)

The Senate hasn't stopped looking at this.
They're actually picking up steam.
Today they're talking to Bobulinski.

Exactly, and it’s rude to try to make a big deal out of it.

Leftists are the most uncouth people on the planet.

I respect those who are older and wise but the line needs to be drawn on the fossils in our government. I am simply amazed at President Trump’s health and vitality.

That’s what I was thinking or he had some sort of IV like heparin especially

The way his hands look

I had a major stent procedure two years ago

They went in my groin both sides femoral...

And one wrist

It took six hours for a retrograde approach where they get behind the ischemia via collaterals

They use so much heparin my entire trunk from above my navel to my knees was dark eggplant and I mean everything

I joked to my wife I’m now a black man

She replied ....not really you’ve fallen a wee bit short....
