What Could Be The Treatment To Prevent Recurring Venous Thrombosis In The Sinus Of The Brain?
Good morning, my sister is 28yrs old, she is diagnosed with Venus Thrombosis in the sinus of the Brain (blood clot). it is the second time she is diagnosed with this initially it was discovered in 2010 but was treated and it vanished.
Her Neurologist Dr. told her that it is incurable, she is currently admitted in the Private Hospital in Pietermaritzburg(RSA). She is currently on Wafarin and Clexane (imi). is this case familiar with you? is there anything that could help to cure of stop it from recurring? Please help!!!

Hi. Your sister is already on the correct line of treatment. The most significant and single factor to avoid this is - dehydration of any sort has to be strictly avoided in future and in lifetime. Another care- Not to have ENT infections, prompt treatment if they occur.
