So I followed the doctor's advice and now I'm at the ER.

@mindstruggle
Doc said I have to wear these compressions socks cause I deal with blood clots and varicose veins, well I'm pretty sure they gave me another clot cause they were too tight, I couldn't walk yesterday, got this huge swollen lump coming out back of my leg.

@BluntSm0ker
You're taking blood thinners?
Be careful you might be prone to bleeding

@mindstruggle
Oh trust me I know, I've been dealing with it since I was 19.

@BluntSm0ker were you wearing o n es prescribed by your health care provider?

@samueltyler2
Yes I was and the prescribed pressure too.

@BluntSm0ker that is really unusual. Whenever i drive or fly, i take and aspirin and put on my cmpression stockings.

@samueltyler2
Yeah, sucks, they did a ultra sound, found a blood clot.

@BluntSm0ker deep vein or superficial?

@samueltyler2
Superficial, but I got DVT in both legs.

@BluntSm0ker did they start you on a direct acting anticoagulant?

@samueltyler2
Yeah I been on blood thinners since my first DVT which was the worst one in 2012, I haven't been the same since.

@BluntSm0ker what med?

@samueltyler2
Xarelto 20mg.

@BluntSm0ker that is a direct acting one. I am.surprised it didn't resolve the clots.

@samueltyler2
I probably have clotting disorder, I lost the count on number of clots I've had.
