Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to Lovenox blood thinner. I suggest to consult your general physician for some examinations before continuing with the treatment. I recommend to do INR level, coagulation time and hemorrhage time.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
