hi, i am wondering if there is anyone here with pelvic venous congetsion... there is no support group for it. there are some in the endometriosis forum with it.
my affected vein is in the cul de sac/pouch of douglas (behind the uterus) it is the left vein next to the uterosacral ligaments... i think its the internal iliac vein.
look forward to hearing if any of you have it

" Hello Again; I had posted a noteto you on the DVT thread. One thing I wanted to mention is that I do have similair symptoms. The one good thing I can say about being on coumadin is I have had only a few migranes where I was getting them monthly. But I too have the build up of pressure that occurs in my chest and get light headed, then extreme fatigue. Some times it comes and goes after I move around a bit. However, recently I felt like was carrying around a 50 lb backpack for a week. I have said several times, that since this PE everything that was "sorta a problem", has become an obvious problem for me. I keep hoping it will all get better. "
