Factor V Leiden/Clotting Disorder & Epidural
Hi. I administered myself injection of heparin for three months before the
delivery. I had the same problema with epidural. You can have epidural only
after 8 hours (at least) after the last injection of heparin. This is usally
possible.
I ended up with a elective c-section and I just stop the heparin the day
before.
For Anne. If you need an emergency c-section and you take heparin, they made
general aenestesia.
