Misty_eyes 79 Posted January 26, 2013 If you are still having pain in your calf--- demand for an ultrasound of your calf. Make sure they check it for clots/ deep vein thrombosis. Ultrasound can see if u have it or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fyre_storm 1,412 Posted January 26, 2013 They took some blood and did an EKG and sent me back to the lobby. The doctor in the er made me feel like an idiot and asked why I hadn't called my surgeon. I feel terrible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kiki1196 101 Posted January 26, 2013 Insist on the ultrasound. That's terrible they would make you feel bad. You are doing the right thing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

novam vitam 117 Posted January 26, 2013 Don't freak out! You're going to be fine! I I think you're far enough out to not worry about NSAIDS. CALL YOUR HUSBAND! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I feel terrible. And if you called your surgeon he might have said get to the ER. Don't worry about that rubbish mate - that's what they get paid for! 1 LG1981 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lessofmeismore 1,405 Posted January 26, 2013 They will check your blood work to make sure your levels are ok... Leg cramps can be caused from low potassium , they will be able to see all your levels They should also get you a ct scan to check your gallbladder and kidneys and bowels Your pretty far out for a leak so I think it's something else 1 *Dean* reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lessofmeismore 1,405 Posted January 26, 2013 Your almost three months out , you don't have a leak or internal bleeding. Just stay calm, they will figure it out. Just breathe And get someone up there with you so they will give you pain meds 1 *Dean* reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
