Somebody really does not like me.  Tomorrow I have to go for yet another ultrasound of my leg for possible...yep,, you guessed it.  A blood clot!   I told the doctor at the hospital Saturday that my leg was hurting.  He ordered the nurse to give me Tylenol.  Mentioned it again to him on Sunday morning before they discharged me and he ignored me.  Now I am home and my leg is so sore I can hardly walk.  If I have a clot I am going to be livid!!!!  Well, I'm already livid,  I am going to blow a gasket.  So discouraged.  Tired.

My INR level is 2.2 and the Pro time is 28.1.  I hope that is the right order. Apparently this is theraputic. I am stressed right out of my gourd!!  I am weak and tired and having to go galavanting to the hospital is the LAST thing I want  to do. How will I ever recover if I don't get any rest?

I'm sorry you are going through all of this. Sure hope they get to the bottom of the clot issue, once and for all. You're right- enough!

What was up with the ER doctor? Tylenol? hmmm....

Hang in there. Keep up posted, come rant. We're here.

Tylenol?  When you were in the hospital for blood clotting issues?  Why don't docs listen to us?  Don't they understand we know our bodies better than anybody?  Well, I sure hope you don't have another clot, but if you do at least it will get taken care of.  Good luck and keep us posted!

I apologize if I am coming on strong here BUT you need to find out whats causing these blood clots BEFORE surgery. I would not want to go have any surgery not knowing.
Please keep us informed whats going on ..
