    My Doctor Says...

    A few years ago I nearly died from a dozen blood clots that broke free in my left leg and found their way into all four quadrants of my lungs. This time I went in earlier. Once again I had blood clots forming in my left leg.

    I went to see a specialist. We had a frank discussion about whether I was at fault of my meds might be. In all the years I have been taking a blood thinner I have missed taking three doses at the right time. So it isn't me.

    Two days ago I started a new blood thinner. When I lie down my abdomen hurts, I have what appears to be a severe case of acid reflux. It keeps me from sleeping. The first night I lay awake most of the night. Last night I got up and played Warcraft for three hours.

    I also noticed I have small bruises on my hands and arms.

    To rule out other possible causes I cut way back on my food intake today and restricted myself to one glass of wine. If it continues to be a problem I will call my specialist on Monday. If this thinner fails I will have to administer shots. Ugh.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.


    I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.
