I did go the Mayo. Hematology prescribed Lovnox a twice daily shot of blood thinner. My feet and legs started to feel better. My next visit to Hematology at Mayo, my Doctor prescribed Eliquis twice daily. Vascular did a regeime of leg wraps and santyl on my wounds to be changed daily. Wounds have all healed. I am feeling so much better, back to work for 1/2 days. I contribute the faster healing to the blood thinners opening up the vessels in my feet.

Merrycat, So glad you got blood thinning treatment and wound care at Mayo. Your sharing of this info helps me confirm that I am getting the most up to date treatment also. I always hope that the reason for and then the treatment for the small vessel blockages will be found for us with LV . In the mean time what ever keeps us on our feet is welcomed. Thanks, Zenk
