Oh my! So glad u still have foot! Funny, but I had two blood clots in arm. One in each artery. Like you, I almost lost the arm. Had I waited any longer I would have. So, seems we have that in common. Is your foot your source of chronic pain? If so, how do you treat your pain? Glad you've joined in discussion. Or, maybe you've been on this forum for a while..*she shrugs*. I am new and just beginning to recognize names. Thanks for the kind wish. Same to you!

Hi jmi, my foot is okay now. A year after my clot I was diagnosed with stage 4 throat cancer. I'm cancer free now but it was a rough road to recovery. My voice and throat are still not right due to the radiation but manageable. About 2 yesrs ago I started dragging my foot and eventuall went to an orthopedic surgeon. To make a long short he preformed a c3c5 cervical fusion. It did not help and made things worse. Now I'm experiencing terrible pain in my legs, hands and foot. My legs are worse and i can barely walk. And my throat is worse since they had to go through the neck to do the fusion. Now I'm seeing a neurosurgeon. I have another issue that started 7 years ago but since this reply is so long I'll talk about it at a later time. Have a great day.
