NWR: MOH update

Hey ladies.. Just want to thank you all again for your healing vibes and prayers. Thought I would give you an update and a little more info since I know many of you are curious. Last Monday my MOH was feeling sick she had a sore throat, and major body aches. She went to class (teaches hs history) and suffered through the week. Late Friday night the pain in her body became very isolated to her right shoulder, around 11pm it got so bad she could not even apply pressure to her shoulder or arm at this time since her pain was 8+ on a scale of 1-10 she had her BF take her to the ER. When she got to the ER they ran a bunch of tests and took a chest x-ray they all come back negative. Thank God she had a doctor that was persistent and wanted to keep running tests, since she was in so much pain and they ended up giving her a cat-scan and found several 10+ blood clots in her lungs. They admitted her right then and started her on Cumin-don to try and thin her blood out. When she was admitted her blood number was less than 1, normal is 2.5-3.5, last night when I left she had climbed up to 1.74 so hopefully she is on her way to getting out of the hospital. Right now they are not sure why this happened. She is in great shape, she coaches boys volleyball and is very hands on, has no family history of blood clotting and no apparent reason why this happened. The best guess that the doctors have is this was cause by her HBC. She has been on orthotricyclen lo for the past 7 years and has had no problems until now. Unfortunately there is no way for them to know for sure, only process of elimination since she has not been on the pill since Friday if things level out and dont happen again then they will blame the BC. If her blood doesn't thin out and stay that way then they will try to find another cause of the clots. I am going back to visit her tonight on my break from work and will let you know if anything changes.
