Candy, you are a journalist, write a book. I swear truth is stranger then fiction huh? I am sorry you are going through all of this. I gave my hubby luvanox injections and he is so skinny he had pretty bruises everywhere. It is a low molecular weight blood thinner that stays in the system much more briefly then heparin etc. Hang in there, glaad you found the clot early. I am thinking of you.
