I went to see my neuro earlier this week. She thinks my current right arm pain is another clot. She was looking at my CT scans when she said this. The CT didnt show her all the structures she needs to see in the brachial plexus. She works in one of our large city hospitals and managed to get me in for a free MRI with all the extra's my vascular surgeon wanted. The hitch is it wont be until October 3 because they are that booked out. Thats ok with me I just have to make sure I dont do anything that might move the clot in the mean time. I go back to her on the 10th Oct and she will do the nerve conduction test then. After that it's back the the vascular surgeon for the next stage of planning my surgery with all the info he needs. I am going to get my GP to do D Dimer and full blood tests just in case they need to know how the bloods are going.

At this stage it looks like surgery wont be until the new year sometime and in the hottest past of summer here in Oz.

I feel like a yoyo back and forward for Dr's and tests but thats part of the TOS journey
