"I have been on this medication since Dec. of 2021. It’s now April of 2022. There is bruising and pain at the injection sites. I had a DVT in my left leg. I thought it was a cramp and used a massager to try to work the cramp out. This broke the clot up into three separate clots, one traveled to my left lung. I am not sure how long I will have to be on this medication. It’s not easy to have to give yourself injections twice a day. It burns as well."

"After being scoped by my urologist, I was instructed to inject Lovenox twice daily. Immediately, I had anal or rectal bleed. I was in the hospital for three days. I will never take Lovenox again."

"I took Lovenox to prevent blood clots after having an emergency C-section with my twin boys. It has been 4 months since I quit taking the shots. I still have pain at the injection sites. Has this happened to anyone else?"
