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.

My leg is still swollen and tender 3 months out from my DVt. I can't say it is cold though.

I can't say about the swollen part but one calf is bigger than the other slightly and according to my hemo, this is normal. As for the cold, well I am always cold, but it is all over and again, my hemo says that it is a side effect of the medicine.

I had a DVT in Sept 2007 and that leg still gives me fits sometimes.

We all have 24 hours in a day. How we spend these hours is important. Watching a little bit of a video about how sitting affects us made me aware of how much sitting and laying down I do. Gonna have to work on that.Your turn. Tell me another truth.
