PPS. For all future medical inquiries, call you doctor's office and talk to the nurse. Web forums, even awesome Democratic ones, aren't the best source of medical info.

Rabies shots - is it normal to have out of control nosebleeds [View all] Aerows Feb 2014 OP

Are you asking about a human being or an animal? sinkingfeeling Feb 2014 #1

It's me Aerows Feb 2014 #4

You should probably ask a doctor Cali_Democrat Feb 2014 #2

ya think? "I have uncontrollable bleeding, maybe I will ask a progressive forum what I should do?" lostincalifornia Feb 2014 #11

Sounds like the bleeding is pretty serious Cali_Democrat Feb 2014 #17

I agree. He should go to an emergency room if he cannot get into see his Doctor now. lostincalifornia Feb 2014 #18

OMG. You poor thing. I have no idea, but feel better. Squinch Feb 2014 #3

My nose keeps bleeding Aerows Feb 2014 #7

I was going to give you my wives tales ways to stop the bleeding, but on second thought, I agree Squinch Feb 2014 #16

Then go to a DOCTOR. theHandpuppet Feb 2014 #21

no it is most likely not the problem 2pooped2pop Feb 2014 #24

I would get with a dr. as soon as you have a chance, Aerows. Out of control RKP5637 Feb 2014 #5

Call your doctor now! hedgehog Feb 2014 #6

I had the shots as a child but did not experience nosebleeds. However, my mind has blocked out the appleannie1 Feb 2014 #8

Oh dear. It could be an unrelated polyp, but I'd call your doc just to reassure yourself. MADem Feb 2014 #9

Call the hospital where you got the shots. MineralMan Feb 2014 #10

Ah, you finally got the shots jberryhill Feb 2014 #12

I did Aerows Feb 2014 #15

Well, this being the internet and all jberryhill Feb 2014 #19

Those instructions are for warts not nose bleeds Tyrs WolfDaemon Feb 2014 #64

Call your doc, it could be high blood pressure nadinbrzezinski Feb 2014 #13

I'm almost convinced this is some sort of parody account tammywammy Feb 2014 #20

Ya I'm starting to wonder myself. Cali_Democrat Feb 2014 #26

Me, too. Come on, Aerows, are you 5 years old? Nay Feb 2014 #32

Seriously. DU pleaded with her to go to the doctor after getting bit a 2nd time. FSogol Feb 2014 #29

Wait....she got bit twice? Cali_Democrat Feb 2014 #35

Yes, once at night and then again the next morning, IIRC. n/t FSogol Feb 2014 #37

hahaha...what a joke. Now I'm convinced the OP is just playing people. nt Cali_Democrat Feb 2014 #38

I was bitten on the hand Aerows Feb 2014 #41

I didn't ask for or want any proof. Here is some advice I posted downthread FSogol Feb 2014 #44

I saw that thread. tammywammy Feb 2014 #53

+1, n/t RKP5637 Feb 2014 #65

Please call your doctor, it may be low platelets n/t Holly_Hobby Feb 2014 #22

Aerows, I wouldn't worry if it is a side effect of the shot.. nenagh Feb 2014 #23

Nose bleeds are common... Boudica the Lyoness Feb 2014 #25

Heh! pinboy3niner Feb 2014 #28

Ha ha ha! Sorry, I can't help laughing. Lasher Feb 2014 #63

I can't imagine that is normal...I would call my doc if I were you... joeybee12 Feb 2014 #30

Hope you get better fast LittleBlue Feb 2014 #34

I would go to the emergency room, stat. nt stevenleser Feb 2014 #36

Hopefully, you have already sought some medical attention. Hope you are ok also. lonestarnot Feb 2014 #39

Did you have nosebleeds before the shots? malaise Feb 2014 #40

I wish I could just lay down and die Aerows Feb 2014 #43

And miss Christie being frogmarched? malaise Feb 2014 #50

I know. Aerows Feb 2014 #52

You're welcome sis malaise Feb 2014 #58

Why on Earth would you ask DU and not your doctor? zappaman Feb 2014 #42

Because i'm an asshole in a bad situation Aerows Feb 2014 #45

By calling the doctor, you'd get someone who gives a damn AND knows what s/he's talking about. Brickbat Feb 2014 #48

At the very least, call the hospital and ask them if they think you should go to the emergency room. pnwmom Feb 2014 #49

Aerows, you're doing it again! Go to a freaking doctor! Hekate Feb 2014 #46

Your next post BETTER be a report on what happened after you called your doctor pinboy3niner Feb 2014 #51

Or you could just send the Hoot Owl Aerows Feb 2014 #54

Make sure to tell the doctor if you're taking any meds that can cause bleeding, like NSAIDS pnwmom Feb 2014 #55

For the record, it is highly unlikely that any vaccine (let alone rabies vaccine) could do such kestrel91316 Feb 2014 #59

Noooooo....that's not entirely true. Nosebleeds are a side effect of rabies shots, apparently.... MADem Feb 2014 #61

Oh, piffle. I've been in practice for over 30 years and never seen or heard tell of a patient kestrel91316 Feb 2014 #68

Well, you and the other vet are gonna have to agree to disagree, I guess. nt MADem Feb 2014 #69

Try not get bit by a raccoon on your way to the Doctor Vinnie From Indy Feb 2014 #60

Wow, I can't believe you're still suffering from this. Lasher Feb 2014 #62

Go to the doctor, and try to bite a raccoon on your way there Orrex Feb 2014 #66

i'd pick a different forum to post this in eShirl Feb 2014 #67
