Anyone experienced a blood clot and on thinners? Had a clot in my neck and along my picc line discovered this week And put on injections. The nurse practitioner basically said i would always have the clot and the pain - suppose Im looking for some hope , its really painful and stops me eating and drinking properly. Does the body not break clots down? Will it move to my brain ? Im terrified as if mbc isnt enough. Sorry feeling glum need to give myself a kick and crack on but its so painful the thought of it never going is almost too much.
Thank you. its just so worrying especially when you dont feel as though youve had things explained properly. Hope you get out of hospital soon .
