iv literally reached breaking point
just over a week ago i went to hospital with palps they ran tests ecg bloods chest xray ... everything came bk clear except my worst nightmare D DIMER the cut of was 230 mine was 310
they rushed me down for a ct of my chest with contrast .. came back clear they then checked my legs and one side is noticeably bigger then the other but thats not really new
they couldnt scan me so put me on celexane until monday when they could scan me . they scanned my left leg from groin to calf
i have a tendancy to worry about docs missing things because of things u hear on the news.
i went home sort of reasured by the next day i couldnt help thinking why was it elevated iv had the test done loads of times it has never been positive ever.
a couple of days later i had to go back they re did the d dimer it again came back positive this time their cut off was 243 mine was 263
they re scanned my left leg from groin to knee was clear the doc originally wanted both legs checked as i have pain in right one as well but its not swollen so radiology refused
iv now spent the last few days literally going threw every scenario in my head im utterly convinced they are missing something and im going to drop dead any minute and il be one of them stories you hear on the news where the docs missed something im barely functioning crying all day looking at my kids scared theyl grow up without me my family do not think theyve missed anything but they just dont get why im scared everytime i had the test before it was negative ..the docs said anything can cause raised levels but none of the reasons they give i have ..not pregnant...only 25 ... no cancer...no surgery ...no infection (they tested) i just cant relax i tried to see my gp but they have no appointments until next week. i cant go back to a and e because i already know they wont do anything because as far as they are concerned it doesnt matter it raised . i feel like im going crazy
