Taking Coumadin And Lovenox Due To Blood Clot In Leg. Had Hysterectomy. Bubbling In The Eyes. Chances Of Further Clots?

I am only 37 years old have been taking lovenox and coumadin due to a blood clot that formed in my leg. my doctor believed it was because of a fibroid. I have since had an hysterectomy and was just recently taken off lovenox. I am now experiencing rumbling and bubbling in both legs. Is this possibly a new blood clot trying to form?

Hello
welcome to health care magic
Thanks for your query.

Since you had been given lovenox and coumadin, most probably you would have had deep vein thrombosis. It is perfect that they had stopped anticoagulants after surgery to prevent internal hemorrhage.

Now it is advisable to take a doppler study of the lower limbs and further continue the treatment.

And to treat this problem medically or surgically will be evaluated on further investigations and physical examination.

Consult vascular surgeon and take further suggestions
wish you a good health
Thank you
