March 26,2008 Not pretty,

This is a view of Shirls swollen leg from the DVT. It has been well over a month and he is still having swelling. Tuesday he did get a pressure stocking and it does seem to be helping. The color is almost back to normal and much of the swelling in the foot is better. He still has a lot of swelling in the upper leg.



Notice the difference in the leg size. He is making improvement and the doctor said the blood clot is pretty much stabilized. He is still taking the Coumedin (sp?) and seems to be feeling better. Now if we could only get that crazy headache to stay away.
