So after rivaroxaban treatment and a 10 month remission of ulcers I have 8 total on both feet. No insurance and no pain meds. Is there a homeopathic remedy I can use? Any ideas would be helpful!

Welcome back Martin! It's great to see you back on Connect. I know you've been busy sharing your patient experience with professionals, and a conference and more.
Jenn, I'm so glad that you chose to post a message to Connect after having followed the discussions for a while now. Welcome!
Have you been following this discussion called "Treatment options for Lividoid Vasculopathy (LV)" http://mayocl.in/2cH8jhA
@zenk @vickieb @marlene64 @gonefishinmt @patientrea do you have any thoughts about complementary therapies for LV? See Jenn's message above.
Hi Jenn, I am so sorry about your new ulcers. Mostly, I am sorry about your lack of insurance. As you have seen, Xarelto works for a lot of us in keeping the Ulcers at bay. Were you taking Rivroxaban when your ulcers came back? Can you afford just one trip to a dermatologist or a doc that knows your LV history? Sometimes they will give you some samples and direct you to a clinic that would treat you . As far as I know, there are no proven homeopathic products or treatments that would deliver blood supply with the needed oxygen to your ulcers so you can heal. I hope you can find a way to get to a doctor who is familiar with LV.
I know how expensive Rivroxaban is, I just got a refill at Walgreens today and I nearly fell on the floor. Keep in touch Jenn. You have been so kind to me in the past. Zenk

Hi Jenn, So sorry to hear about your situation. Theres an amazing book that has helped me out a great deal for home remedies to pain called:
"The end of pain"
By: Jacqueline Lagace, PhD and Jean-Yves Dionne
I highly recommend it which goes into detail on how to change your diet naturally.
I would also look into the "Fork over Knife" eating program. I am just starting this program removing meat and dairy to clear out the arterial system in order to battle wounds and clotting factors that contribute.
I hope this helps!
