[QUOTE="briped, post: 1785069, member: 472718"] Thanks for taking your time. Were they damaged in one leg, or did he get DVTs in both of his legs? So he doesn't have to wear socks every day, but just when his legs are particularly swollen? I was told I'd have to wear them every day, or they wouldn't have any effect, and I really and truly can't bear that thought. I won't be able to contact my GP till Tuesday, but don't feel it's urgent enough to get referred to A&E, and like I said in my post above, I'm already being treated anyway. Lifelong Xarelto. Actually my calf is a little sore, but that could be from all the foot wiggling I've been doing today. My right calf is a bit more than an inch thicker than my left, so I'm not just imagining things. I promise I won't ignore symptoms, but I admit that I am bad at underestimating them when it comes to myself. I know I have to lose weight, but am still waiting for the keto-miracle to kick in. I'm so glad he survived the pulmonary embolism. That's no fun. When I couldn't climb the stairs from one floor to the next without taking a 15 minute break halfway up, I knew something was seriously wrong. Till then I kept telling myself it was just a virus.:banghead: [/QUOTE]
