I found my own blood clot

On August 1st, i broke my ankle. I went to the ER and they send me to a bone Dr to have a cast put on my leg. After 3 weeks, they took my cast off. I told the Dr that my leg was hurting really bad, and told him that i thought i had a blood clot in my leg. The dr replied, " I can almost guarate you 100% that you dont have a blood clot". I insisted on having a test to see if it was a blood clot. He tried to discourage me from persueing this matter, but i insisted on having it checked out furture. It ended up that i did have a clot in my leg and was in the hospital for 8 days. Im on 13 miligrams of cumiden a day. But if i had listened to that Dr, i`d be dead today. So this goes to show you, go with what you feel is right for you. Rachel, Rmustang48@aol.com
