Please if someone can get back to my question because i suffer from panic attacks and anxiety 3VL0000T0000
the question was why do i have blood in my mouth after i wake up and then even if i cough there is nothing. Clear. the colour also is bright red. I have taken antibiotics to stop it and they worked. i stop them because i finished the course and i wake up with blood in my mouth. I also am on coumadin. when i first saw blood in my mouth was when the doctor put me on luvox to stop the panic attacks and fear disorder. When i started bleeding i stopped luvox and took anti bionics and the blood stopped. Now the blood came back everytime i wake up.

Hi XXXXXXX
Thanks for writing in.
If there was bleeding from the mouth and it was controlled by antibiotics, it suggests that there is an infection or a dental issue and warfarin is not the cause. seeing a dentist will help you find out why your gums/oral mucosa are bleeding. To help you further, I would like to know the latest PT/INR report. Also, do let me know if you're taking any other drugs.
As far as the panic attacks and anxiety disorder is concerned, psychotherapy would be needed. This would be in addition to anti-anxiety medication but the medication would need to be selected carefully given that you already are receiving warfarin which interacts with many drugs. Since Luvox can cause an increase in the bleeding associated with warfarin, I would suggest you temporarily stop the drug and speak with your physician about this.
However, if you notice any blood in urine, black stools or bleeding from any other site, please visit the ER immediately. we may be looking at a side effect of Warfarin
awaiting your reply

Hi XXXXXXX
Thanks for writing back.
The INR is well within the expected range and I dont think the bleeding is due to the warfarin. There is possibly a local cause like a problem with the gums or oral mucosa, which your dentist can tell by examination.
Why are you receiving avenza?

for the panic attacks and fears that i might have cancer. My father died from it and when i gave birth to my second daughter i got depressed with massive panic attacks and anxiety attacks. That's why i take avenza. Also that blood that i see in the morning my mind goes that i have cancer. The fear overpowers me and controls me. Early this year i have ct scans, blood tests and everything was clear.
Hi,
Thanks for writing back.
The main treatment for panic attacks and overwhelming anxiety is psychotherapy, particularly cognitive behavioural therapy. Actually, I believe you're taking AVANZA ( which contains mirtazapine) and not AVENZA ( which contains morphine)
I think you should be seeing a clinical psychotherapist and you'd be much better off.
Let me know if you have any questions. Else, please close this discussion
