Guest guest Posted December 18, 2002 Report Share Posted December 18, 2002 Hi I think I might be tempted to blame it on the fish oil, I had repeated bloody noses when I took them, since stopping them no more bloody nose, save when I have a cold or something, Co-incidental? Who knows! If you take fish oil, you could try knocking them off for a week to see what happens, process of elimination so to speak, but remember if you are taking these as directed by a physician, please consult them first.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2002 Report Share Posted December 18, 2002 When my son was on Lasix (diuretic) - at a fairly high dose he would have spontaneous nosebleeds. Apparently he was just too dried out, as the problem resolved when the Lasix dose was cut in half.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2002 Report Share Posted December 18, 2002 I don't know that it would necessarily be related to the IgAN. Do you have trouble with high blood pressure? That can cause people to be more prone to nosebleeds due to the fact that there is more pressure put onto the blood vessels, and the ones in the nose aren't necessarily as strong as all the rest.

It does not drip red, but everytime I blow my nose it has either bright red or dark red (clotted) mucuous now.
