I was on Coumadin and Lovenox. I went to the Coumadin site here and realized most of the problems I've been having were from the Coumadin. I made a copy, took it to my doctor along with a copy of my symptoms and he took me off Coumadin but kept me on Lovenox. All the symptoms went away...except for one. An overwhelming tiredness that takes over after I get my shot. I found that it's best to get the shot at night and take advantage of the tiredness then. I sleep for hours after a shot and if I get it in the daytime I won't sleep at night, My doctor also told me that I would now have to watch out for Osteoporosis, because one of the side effects of Lovenox is Osteoporosis. Nice to know since I already have Osteoporosis. Now what? Oh. well.... By the way the little lumps and bumps under your skin are small hematomas. I asked my nurse.
