I have has my period for 5 months, I would have days where the I would only get vaginal discharge and I would think it was about to stop but then the next day blood would come down. For about 4 months I would say it wasn t heavy bleeding as my usual Period, I would use 1 sometimes 2 pads in a day. But lately I have been bleeding heavily, just the other day I went through 8 pads in 8 hours. I was getting blood clots bigger than a quarter, my concern is my heart, I know I have tachycardia do to my iron defiancy anemia but today I can hear my heart beat in my ears and a wooshing sound. I know I should go to the doctor but I don t have any insuarence last time I went with anemia I ended up with a 46k hospital Bill.
