This is very near and dear to me-- my cousin's husband just died and they believe it was from contaminated heparin and on top of that, I am also a secretary at a medical malpractice firm and I have been talking to clients who have gotten very sick after using heparin. Sounds like all of you have experienced some side effects, but its hard to tell whether or not they were related to the other drugs or procedures that were going on. My first suggestion is to DOCUMENT EVERYTHING. This stuff is bad news. I'm not a lawyer, but I work for lawyers that do this and I am in contact daily with the doctors and nurses that work for the firm. I would be more than happy to help if you have any legal questions. Just email me and I will do what I can.

I read that Heparin bladder installations for people with interstitial cystitis have been withdrawn in US because they were causing people to be seriously ill and in severe pain from contamination. Any medications that come from China are suspect. They don't even have to have inspections if they are selling to international companies, only if the medicines are for their own country! China is churning out millions of totally substandard and dangerous medicines. A doctor I spoke to said don't use anything that is made in China. This is terrible and should be published worldwide. There are no regulations in China and they are doing things on the cheap for drug companies. I am in the UK and I have no doubt we are also being flooded with dangerous medicines.
