I am curious about your IV filter. Is it to prevent blood clots?

No I took the permanent option it just sounds better to always have that protection

OK. Thanks! I had never heard of that.

My doc always put these inflaters on my legs that inflate and deflate all night. They are supposed to help with clots. I'm a light sleeper so I didn't get much shut-eye during hospital stays. When I got my gall bladder out and got my sleeve, though, the morphine made it so I could sleep anyway.

Three more days! Prayers and good wishes for you!
