Well last night and this morning were fun.
Went to the doc yesterday. I wanted a blood clotting test to see if I was clear of clots. Doc called after 11pm last night and told me my results were abnormal and I need to go to hospital. She has arranged for me to go to Midstream. Now you can imagine what my kids are going through. So get there close to 1am and they won't take me as they don't accept my hospital plan. So I had to go to Unitas Casualty. I arrive there and show the doc my test results and he was perplexed. He said I should come back this morning and we will do a doppler scan but no need for a full-body scan which is what the doc wanted. By the time I got home and went to bed, it was 3am. I am dead tired and will be going for this scan soon.
And it is my son's birthday and my poor kids and mum are in a state.
Oh gosh!
Happy birthday to your son!
May your tests and checks reveal favourable results that brings good news and lets you go home, even if it's with some meds.
I was tested and checked for clots, repeatedly, I went home without blood thinners, as dr was happy with the results..
In high care and ICU after that they took blood daily from the "tap" they had placed in my left arm. It was placed into the main artery of the left arm (gave them an arterial blood source) Connect syringe, twist open the tap, draw blood, close it.
Mr and daughter, who recovered at home are on a 3 month course of blood thinners. They were obviously never checked for clots
