Dvt

[pattayadave]

My mother who is 81yrs of age was taken into hospital with a suspected DVT,a cat scan yesterday revealed a clot in her upper thigh the doctors say she is to frail to operate on and want to try inserting some kind of caffiter up the vien and try to either dislodge or remove it.

they have been treating her with antibioticts? not sure why but it seems she also has an ulcer on her lower calf,has anybody ever had a DVT or a reletive had one and had this kind of treatment before,i am in constant touch with my mother and sister who asure me everything is ok.

work know of the situation and i really think i should go home,trouble is i dont want to worry my mother thinking the doctors have told me to come.
