I have a blood clot AND it is infected



Recommended Posts

UPDATE on my clot.

It has been almost a year and that red streak over the top of my arm goring from my wrist 1/2 way up to my elbow has now turned a brown tint... sort of like melasma but in a line. The antibiotics did help clear the infection to the point where my body could try to break down the clot. About 6 months out, one of the clots in my wrist went away another one traveled up and planted itself in my elbow. Oh the aches this caused! Eventually that turned into an abscess and I had to have 2 rounds of different antibiotics when that occurred.

Other than the clots, and some hair loss (yes I have so much Protein and biotin) I am really healthy. :) Thank you for all of the concerns and hopefully this thread will serve as an information point for another person in a similar situation.
