    • Close Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)

      I have been diagnosed with dvt's since 94. My first one started when I was pregnant. I then in 98 had one in my lungs, and now just last week I was hospitalized with one in my left calf. I have to admnit this time im scared silly. Even after I have been released, my leg keeps swelling, and it hurts so bad. Im scared to sleep because im afraid the clot has broke lose and is going to go to my lungs or heart and i wont wake up. Is this swelling normal, and pain normal? Someone tell me something. Did I mention the doctor told me i had blood as thick as ketchup. is that possible?

      Treatments

      Coumadin Working / Worked
      On it now, not sure its working well.
      Lovenox Working / Worked
      Hurt pretty bad to get the injection in my stomach, but they said it made my levels come down.
