Emergency Room x 2

My Yearly Physical was on Monday, April 13th; Barbara had mentioned the prior week that my left leg look swollen and Dr Morris (my GP) requested that I do an ultrasound. On Wednesday I had the ultrasound done and, while in the imaging site, Dr Morris requested that I go to the Emergency Room because they had found a clot on my left leg- DVT (Deep Venous thrombosis- possible cause by the long flights to Argentina + to Austin + my lack of mobility of my left leg.

Silver lining of the DVT: it accelerates the use of the second therapy to address the Brain Edema/Necrosis and provide me with a top team to manage the Warfarin.

Barbara took me to the Jefferson ER where they held me overnight (+ all day) waiting for the Vascular team to see me. I meet Dr Geno Merli- head of the Vascular group and was released Thursday evening, with intramuscular Blood Thinner and the plan to go on Warfarin. Dr Merli requested that I delay my HBOT until the following week.

Had to cancel Physical Therapy also.
Sunday afternoon had a significant seizure (17 days between seizures) which was different - did not start on the foot but started on the head. Both Barbara and I were scared and called the ambulance; The seizure turned out to be similar in duration and effect.
I was taken to the local hospital and when they decided that they wanted to keep me overnight so that the local neurologist would see me the following morning we decided to go back to Jefferson, to be seen by all my Doctors.

Sunday and Monday @ Jefferson so lost the Monday's HBOT, was started in Warfarin for the DVT and was prescribed Steroids on taper. An MRI was done - I have not yet seen the results.
HBOT restarted on Tuesday morning and had my first Warfarin control same Tuesday.
Had my Physical Therapy and Rehab Sessions on Friday- I am very pleased because they are really focused on maintaining my functionality, working on my balance and thee skills that I need to be as functional as I possible.
As of today I feel I am back on track, on my routine - being able to focus on the things I have to do on an on-going basis.

Work is going well - trying to stay on top of my projects - old and new. 

Quite a week.
