I had a DVT many years ago (but I wasn't pregnant at the time). It took them a couple tests to figure out why I was in so much pain I could hardly walk, but then they put me right in the hospital on blood thinners. DVT is something to take seriously. Several posts back, I commented on having to be on blood thinners during my second pregnancy (once they figured out that I was at high risk for another DVT). I'm also pretty needle-phobic, but the daily injections were not That bad, once I got used to them. Actually, I had a terrible time giving them to myself, but when my husband did them, it was okay. Not wanting to be a "gloomy gus" here, but I wouldn't be surprised if your doctors strongly suggested blood thinners in future pregnancies as well. I tried to remember to be thankful that this medical technology was available for me, to protect my life and that of my baby! I'm praying for you.<br/>Cordially,<br/>Melora So sorry about these troubles! I had a DVT many years ago (but I wasn’t pregnant at the time).

Sometimes just thinking positive can do wonders for the state of mind! Prayers being sent your way!
