My Leg

[Deleted User] · October 2009

Just wanted to give a f/u on my leg for those of you who gave me great advice yesterday. I went to the dr. and she examined it. While she could see nothing that made her think it was a clot, the symptoms I describe sounded like one, so she in sending me to have an utlrasound this morning just to be safe. I most likely won't find anything out until tomorrow. Thanks again for all of your advice and support.

I had an ultrasound done for a suspected clot. Turned out to be a torn/herniated miniscus (sp?).

I'm glad you're getting it checked out! Better to know something than just keep wondering. Good luck!

cew--is your leg swollen at all? Have you traveled or flow lately? I went to the Dr.'s for what my FI and general practitioner thought was a blood clot--and I remember constantly being asked about travel (being in the car for a long amount of time) or flying (long flight sitting down). Keep us updated!!

Does she have any idea what it could be other than a clot? Or will you find out after the ultrasound? Dont die!

cmhershey · October 2009

Glad to her she doesn't think its a clot, but to have the ultrasound will give you peace of mind. Keep us posted!

No, it's not swollen and there is nothing that makes it look weird. Just the pain. No traveling either. She did ask me if I've been sitting or standing for a long time recently. Does spending a shiitton of time on TK count?:)She didn't say what she thought it could be. I'll have a f/up with her after she gets the results of the ultrasound, so I'll find out then.

Thank goodness!

Spending a shitton of time on P&E can't possibly be unhealthy. Laughter is the best medicine, after all.

You are so right! How's your computer? Were you able to get it up and running?

Good luck with the ultrasound. Its better to know what you are up against though. I understand how you feel, the day after our shower the my fiance was complaining about his leg feeling like he had a cramp in his leg he didn't have any other signs. About 3 weeks later, he finally went to the doctor and they did an ultrasound and found a clot in his leg. That was in the beginning of August. About a week later a piece of the clot moved to his lungs. It's been 8 weeks now and everything is almost back to normal.

Wow kel, that sounds awful. I'm so glad that he's doing better. That sounds so scary. I just got back and the ultrasound lady told me that she did not see anything! I feel very relieved. The dr. should be calling me today to let me know what she thinks it is.

Thinking good thoughts for you! I missed this yesterday, or I would have been thinking them then, too!
