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.
Third week with and INR of 2.0!!! Doc says I can go two weeks without a Protime. Does this mean I'm getting better?

As for getting better, an in-range INR means that your clot won't get bigger and that you're very unlikely to throw another clot. Your body has to do the work dissolving the existing clot, but if you're feeling better (both mentally and physically), then I'd say you're getting better.
