OK - help me here. Can you get blood clots while you are on warafin? I thought the object was to not get clots. I have a really bad spot on my leg, not really red, but a little red, swollen, hot to the touch and really really tender. Even when my pants touch it, it hurts, There is no bruise there and I do not remember hitting it on anything and since it is right by (I mean within 1/2 inch) my knee, I know if I hit it on something, I would remember it. This pain started last night and has gotten steadily worse today. I called my PCP and she wants me to go the ER to get an ultrasound on it. Is this something I should worry about or should I just take a wait and see attitude? I am so tired of going to the ER and I do not want to seem like a hypochondriac (however you spell that word! ). Any help or answers you can give me would be greatly appreciated! Thanks again all....you are the best!
