DVT Personal Experience I am a twin and was born prematurally. My left leg was black and told I would loose it and never walk again. The Lord was on my side. Today I have my leg and I do walk, although I have trouble with that leg.When I was 30 years old, I got a blood clot in that leg. They put me into sergury and said it would take them thirty minutes to roter ruter out the vein. To their suprise after five hours they found out I am clotted from the kidneys down and was rock solid in the main vein. As a baby my body made colladeral veins where my blood flows. They say I am going to be on blood thinners for the rest of my life, but I am determined to find someone with something to help me. I am told I have a 20% blood flow in my left leg, and very poor circulation.
