Shannon, do the doctors know how long you've had the blood clot? What are they doing to treat you for it? Are you feeling any better? It seems like some doctors don't take the care of their patients very seriously.

Get well! I'll keep you in my prayers.

Got blood clot, nearly died. Lots of damage.....been on back for 8 days. Horrible pain.................Sorry I decided to have this done. I am a mess!

Sorry you had to go through that. However, blood clots are a risk with any surgery.

Did you receive Lovenox before surgery?

Ouch! Was the blood clot band-related? Your comment that you are sorry you had this done suggests it is... where was the clot and did they have an explanation of how you got it?

Rest up -- I'm so glad they caught it in time!!

When you are well enough, I hope you let us know how it all went down. Hop you have a speedy recovery and I am so sorry this happened to you.

Good God. If you went that many days without treatment, you ARE lucky you didn't die. Be grateful your angels were watching over you!!
