Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My wife has pad. two months ago she had a third procedure to get blood flow to her legs. It goes from the Artery from her rightshoulder area and feeds her legs, She was put on Warfarin to thin her blood. This was two months ago and she has been heeling. Last week she fell in the shower and hit her head. She had a braind bleed, They did a CT at the VA in Chicago then one at U of I where she was transferred to. They said it looked ok. they did an angiogram afterwards and told us the bleed was from trauma. She was released in three days . I thought she was getting better. With in few days she was having a hard time getting up severe pain in her legs as well as her head. I brought her back to the VA ER. They Did a Ct of her Brain they said the blood is almost not showing. They did a mri of her back nothing there. also a x-ray of her tail bone no fracture there. They don't know where all this pain is coming from. more test tomorrow. I think it is vascular. hey had a hard time doing the Angiogram because of her past surgeries.She has been off blood thinners for a week. I am worried about maybe a clot somewhere. I don't understand why they did the angiogram the ct looked ok. If you have any feed back it would be greatly appreciated. Her Vascular Doctor was pearce. I heard he is one of the best. The Va wants to run more test before they call in Vascular. please help us
