I woke up 6:00am my leg same. Family and friends around me telling me to go to the emergency room. Over coffee I decided to go to Newton Iowa ER. I explain situation, hook me up to all kinds of machines, they wanted to start IV, I said NO.... They ruled out heart attack..... Duuuu.
Dr come in pleaded with me for hook IV. I asked him what for? His reply check my Coumadin levels(blood thinning). Drop of blood needed to do the test, both hospitals clinics my doctors office has special device, finger prick all that drop blood needed. Again I said NO.... I explain to Dr. that Coumadin levels same nine years.
ER Dr ordered Doppler on my left leg. Doppler test already show Old clots & new clots. Dr. come in wanted ambulance to bigger hospital, put in filters my blood veins. Earlier I told him to filters in my body already, but he seems skeptical. 3 1/2 hrs pass sense I arrived in ER, no time to call my doctor figure out filters in place or not. Nurse came in to discharge me, because I refused to treatment. She referring to IV. WTF I asked can you draw my blood with out IV? Nurse vanished, came back and doctors said fine, nurse drew my blood without IV. Two hours later results came in, Number of Coumadin in my body, supposed to between 2.5 - 3 my is 3.3 little bit high. Dr. urged me to go to bigger hospital Mercy, discharge me.
I went back to my trailer to think. I called my doctors office and spoke to his p/a they want me to check in bigger hospital as well. P/A worried about my lose leg. So I pack my over night bag and made arrangements with Newton KOA (sane, nice people) to keep my trailer state.
I drove to Mercy ER Des Moines. I brought in the Doppler test CD with me, No paper work. Mercy ER call Newton ER, I don't know if they responded. I think not.
Newton ER send me to Mercy ER Dr disagreed to put in more filters in my body. Ok fine, neither Dr's to see if really had filters in place. I told them that I don't remember for sure placement of filters. Never called my doctor to order records. ER gave me a shot Lovenox, another blood thinner. Gave me the scripting to fill. So started me on Lovenox, & keeping Coumadin dose.
Mercy ER discharge me last night 1:45am. No dinner, I was tired and cranky. I had to drive one hour.
