sandy1010 15 Posted September 2, 2016 Wow I completely understand about the clot. This is why I'm scared to have the surgery. I had multiple blood clots in both of my lungs. This was 2 yrs ago all of them have dissolved now. I'm on a blood thinner for life because after a lot of test. I found out that I have Factor V a clotting disorder. It was a long road and I still have some rough days. Feel free to ask me any questions. Take care and get lots of rest you will get tired so easy.

But i was having issues with leg pain before that. I dont think the nerve issues were actually nerve issues Sent from my LG-H343 using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dede_mont 105 Posted September 10, 2016 Just an update.. I'm back home, was released the evening of the 8th. I ended up having an arterial blockage. It took 4 tries to break it up and a butt load of blood thinners. I am now on a walker and have to take aspirin and a blood thinner. I'm one giant bruise but I'm home and alot more healthy then I was. Thanks Sent from my LG-H343 using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
