Hello everyone this is my first time posting but I am greatful for all the helpful information and support. I was sleeved on 3/8/2013 ungortunately I develop a blood clot on portal vein is a one of the veins that is connect from my liver to my stomach that's how they explain it. They said is one of the risk of having this type of surgeries. They put me on blood thinners and taken off them once the blood clot was gone. On Easter sunday I had horrible pain I thought I had overeat but the pain did not get better went to the hospital and it turns out I have another blood clot this time is on my mesentric vein which is the vein that provides the blood flow to my intestines. This time they sent me to a blood specialist it's frustrating because all the test they are performing seem to indicate that my blood is normal so the doctors don't even now what to think of it. He basically said to me I am warfarin and levonox again and wants to see me in a month. Has anyone had any issues similar to this I am really scared and the pains are so horrible even to drink water hurts any information you can give will help me cause dr. are no helping at all.

Thank you so much for your support I am seeing another doctor on Thursday

Yes we have but dr is doing more research on bariatric patients and blood clots. He is conflicted because all my blood work seems to indicate I don't have a clotting issue. That is the reason I decided to join this forum to get some advice and hopefully find others with similar complication. I was working out everyday but now it's hard to even keep up with my 3 year old.

Yes the first blood clot was discover 5 days after surgery and the second blood clot was recently discovered. My surgery anniversary was on 3/8 so it's been two years. Sorry for the confusion but I am just not all there this day. I also haven't been sleeping well cause of pain.
