On Blood Thinners, Frequently Experience High Fever With Chills After Travel Via Plane Or Boat, Had Near Fatal PME. Relation?

I had a near fatal PME in January and before that I had several occurances of high fever and chills for a few days. I don t know it they were related. They did seem to happen whenever I traveled ( plane or boat). I had nothing like that after treatment for my PME until i again traveled by place to Asia. Do you feel this two are related? The fever does come with congestion and I am currently on blood thinners

Hello,

This might not be entirely related with each other.Fever with chills is suggestive of some kind of infection.So it won't be directly related to your blood thinners.

Regards.
