Blood Clot

It's been over 2 weeks started th have pain in the left leg. Pain actually started a week ago, but I have a high tolerance for pain and just kept on thinking it would go away.....Finally went to dr's she ran blood test because she was suspicious of me having blood clot started me on blood thinners called Eloquist. Side effect of blood thinner is bleeding. Two days pass I go in for Ultrasound of left leg no blood clot there which indicates blood clot is in my chest. Thank god on blood thinners. Going for CT scan today... Keep you posted other than that recovery going really well!

Glad you caught the clot and went on blood thinners. Hope your test goes well today.

keep posting. 

Gosh Creedes, sorry to hear that! Has it def gone to chest though?

I'm 4wks post op now and had awful pain in my right leg and went for an ultrasound and they didn't find anything in my leg or groin.

I'm feeling much better now thankfully and the pain has subsided from my leg, I think as I've been more mobile.

Hope it all goes ok x

Thinking of you praying for a positive outcome come god bless πŸ™πŸ»πŸ™πŸ»

I've read you are a lot more likely to get DVT after an abdominal surgery - very lucky you stopped ignoring the signals and went to your Dr! Really hope all goes well - and that you get better soon! Sounds like you have a good Dr too - getting you on blood thinners super quick!

I'm so glad it was caught in time!  Thank heavens!  You have a good MD.  Please let me know how you're doing!  

Thank you since I posted I have had heart CTA scan and now abdomen. Did you take a blood test by any chance

Thank you

Thank you

Thank you

Please do let me know how you're doing!  Rest and take care of yourself!  And, let me know how you get on! xx

Hi Creedes,

How are you doing? Did they find a clot in your ct scan?

No the doctor did talk about the blood test which is normally the first thing to do prior to a scan but they said that the blood test cannot always be reliable because blot clot fragments can increase after an operation so it can give a raised reading. They decided to send me for an ultrasound straight away.

Hope everything is ok with you, keep us posted. Big hugs x

Now I need to get a Cat scan of pelvis they found something In my Ultrasound... will let you know Monday. Need to fast 6 hours before and drink this chocolate drink 2 hours before.. Let you know how it is..

Good luck πŸ€Try not to worry, although I'm a right one to say that!!

My pelvis, pubic bone and tummy is really sore today. My leg started aching again last night and a bit this morn tooπŸ‘ŽFeel like I'm ok one day then gone backwards the next....

Oh my gosh!  Please let me know how things go on Monday.

Thank you always!

So sweet of you! xxx
