Serial Experience or Surreal Experience Part 2

Day, Month #, 2012 ~ 30-Day Blogging Challenge prompt is blog about ANY experience of your life in two parts (it must be 1 experience, 2 parts)

Venous problems
I have to wear compression stockings
or my legs swell

The problem with my left leg had to do with my veins. I had two out patient procedures at a vein clinic and outpatient surgical center to take care of part of the problem. The procedure entailed kill nonworking veins in my right and left legs. I had the procedures done in March and April.

On Friday, June 29, I went in for an ultra sound of my legs. The good news is that both of the nonworking veins are dead and there no blood flowing through them. The good news is that I do not have any blood clots. I have to go in to the clinic in September or another ultrasound.

Compression stocking
Not the prettiest there are
Sometimes feel good

I no longer have a bandage on my left leg, but my leg is still red. The red seems to be going away or perhaps I just hope its going away. This whole experience still seems surreal, as if I’m in a dream and I will wake up without is problems with my legs.

I have an appointment on July 5 at the wound hospital for a follow-up so that the doctor can see how my leg is doing. The leg seems to be fine with the exception of the redness and periodic swelling.
