Erin, Both Alice and I on your last post thought you should have the possibility of a clot/DVT (deep vein thrombosis) checked out ASAP.

That swelling is not normal. They need to do an ultrasound of your leg. And probably a D-Dimer blood test.

If you have a DVT, it is an emergency.

You may have an occluded artery somewhere. Again, you need help from specialists. And perhaps a couple new "eyes" on your situation, as in a 2nd opinion.

Have they done a chem panel? It sounds like you have more than MG going on here.

I'm sorry no one helped you. People can be nice too!!!

Watch out with those nail jobs - it's easy to get an infection.

Please go in to the ER and have them check out the possibility of a clot. I hope you will get help.


Annie
