Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) Support Group
Deep-vein thrombosis, also known as deep-venous thrombosis or DVT, is the formation of a blood clot ("thrombus") in a deep vein. It can be caused by something preventing blood from circulating or clotting normally. Join the support group if you are coping with DVT and find others who are going through the same challenges.
So just a background on me I had a pe about 8 yrs they thought I got it from birth control but couldn't prove it well I just went into the er last week cuz I thought I have a clot in my leg nothing visible just felt like a Charly horse and pain they were shocked to find a small one in my leg anyways since then my tests have all come back normal my vitals were normal blood sugar all that. So my doctor wants me to see a blood/oncologist I'm worrying myself sick I'm scared I have cancer now I can't get out of my head. I go in on Tues. So I also got an infection at one of my lovenox injection sites. It's hard and red and hot I've been on antibiotics for 3 days maybe 4 now the redness is going down. It is still really warm but not as bad but it's still hard she said it wasn't assessed but I'm freaking out out should it be gone or at least not hard anymore? Ahhh I hate this is get chills sometimes my hands and feet get cold sometimes and I think I look a little pale sometimes idk I might be over reacting. My feet tingle sometimes and I feel pain still sometimes I'm achy right now she said it was a low or slim chance it's cancer related but I'm so terrified. Can the Coumadin make feel like this? I. Sorry I'm just scared out of my mind I feel like every little pain or symptom is something bad. Also my bowel was like diarrhea and snotty I had tacos and it went like right through me I'm sorry for the tmi but I'm so scared.

Nationalday.com proclaims September 28th as Self Aware Day. I took a few snaps of various core values lists and tried to pick my top five core values (kinda hard to only pick 5). But here are my top picks. Feel free to list a few of yours too:GodLovePeaceStability Compassion

Now that I am not talking to my whatever best friend, I realized that her life is full of drama. I had grown tired of hearing her stories about her boyfriend many months ago. She basically had been monopolizing conversations for that long too. She pretty much stopped asking me questions about me. I passed her in front of her classroom the other day and didn't even look at her. I am...

Coumadin can cause stomache upset.
Try to relax. I know it’s hard but being amped up might be causing some of the stuff you are feeling and being hyper vigilant about everything going on in your body just heightens everything you are feeling.
I’m not sure about your lovenox injection site infection/bump. If it’s getting better, then I wouldn’t worry about it. Ask the hematologist about it at your appointment. Write down all your questions for your appointment. That can help you feel more in control.
Try not to speculate too much. It’s not doing anything to help you. Hopefully the hematologist will ease your mind.
You will be ok.
