I know but it's not noticeably dry. I lived in very dry houses before and do not feel the "dry" in the air like I did in those homes. Plus even in the dry air homes I never had nose bleeds.

It probably really is the dry air. I get them occassionally in the winter.

A cooler house and a vaporizer, to return humidity to the air, help many people with frequent nosebleeds. Nasal saline spray can help prevent nosebleeds, especially during the winter months. This is what works best for my son...:yay:

Nosebleed Precautions*Stay on a soft cool diet. No hot liquids for at least 24 hours. Do not take any medications which will "thin the blood" like aspirin.

And that's a big :yeahthat: about that. Too much aspirin is bad news. Nothing like rushing somebody to the emergency room with an uncontrollable nosebleed and it taking almost 4 hours to completely control the bleeding. :twitch:

So what your saying is...

...the idea I had that I finally ceased having my period and it has mysteriously moved to my upper regions is probably not what is going on.

They tried to cauterize the broken blood vessel but it was just too deep in the sinus cavity. If the bleeding hadn't gotten under control, emergency surgery was the next option. :ohwell:

Just glue the tampons to popsicle sticks and shove them up your nose. The ER did that to me and it cost me a fortune.
