I Have a Concern
Hospitalized in March for 7 days, now on oxygen at night only. Portable oxygen - doctor removed, I take that as a good thing.
I have a concern. After my release from the hospital I had swollen ankles/legs and pain for two nights. My doctor ordered vascular scan to rule out blood clots (no clots) and technician said I had good flow of blood. Next a heart scan and cardiologist says my heart is good. I have been on a diuretic and potassium for two months. Both legs look indented at top of calf, red and sore and still swollen. Need to know what caused this?
