Absolutely will pray!

Is Deep Vein Thrombosis a consideration?

What are DVT and PE, and how are they related?

DVT is a blood clot in a deep vein, usually in the leg, thigh, or pelvis, and can also occur in the arm.

A PE is a blood clot in the lungs and is the most serious condition that can be caused by DVT. This happens when a DVT clot, or part of it, breaks off and travels through the bloodstream to the lungs, reducing or cutting off blood supply. This can be deadly.

Thank you. That would be surprise to me. It’s left flank, just below ribs.

I had a PE (right lung - more common) and my dad had a terrible DVT that blew up his leg and hurt so terribly aching. This just doesn’t seem like those.
