I have an irrational fear of doctors, so hoping it resolves on its own.
Edit: I’m going to the ER, this seems kinda serious. I hope it’s not DVT, that would complicate getting bottom surgery…
Edit2: I’ve been told it’s an infection. Apparently, a blood test confirmed it. I don’t have a clot and a D-dimer test returned 560 ng/ml, which I’m getting checked again with my GP on Monday. I got some antibiotics (for free) and I’m supposed to take those for a week. Thank you everyone for convincing me to go ❤️
As someone who tried to walk off a DVT for a few days, the doctors/nurses were the nicest part of the process.
Insurance denied my prescription though. I was back in the ER the next day when the clot broke apart and compromised my lungs. Fuck insurance.
Holy shit you’re lucky to be alive. Fuck the healthcare in this country I swear.
