Thanks for the thoughts I really appreciate them.
Saw the hematologist today and had a Doppler scan of the leg. There is not a blood clot caused by the injury. That is also a relief to know that since Don has a mechanical heart valve.
Dr. advised him to stay flat with that leg elevated to reduce the swelling.
Don is not a complainer so many times all I can do is keep a watch for things that are out of the ordinary, and believe me with MDS sometimes that's kind of difficult to know.
So I'll continue to watch read and learn all I can to help him. I am so very thankful that I found this forum.
God bless you all.
