Guest guest Posted May 18, 2002 Report Share Posted May 18, 2002 Debs, Too many platelets (thrombocytosis) can cause bruising, bleeding, or sometimes excessive clotting so this is probably what is going on with your knee. That's probably why the doctor wanted you on bed rest young lady!!! I hope you do NOTHING this weekend except watch your daughter's confirmation. Other than that please rest as much as you can. will be happy that you are there to see the ceremony. I hope others will take care of the confirmation party. You need rest my friend. I hope you get your results soon. hugs, a [ ] Still Hemorrhaging Hi Guys, Will keep this short. My knee is still hemorrhaging as late as today. I went to the hair salon (my youngest is being confirmed on Sunday) and I was getting ready to leave, I got up from a chair and once again, the blood just started spurting out all over the salon. I was so embarrassed! They got me to a chair and called an ambulance. I refused to go in the ambulance, Ron left work and took me to the doctor for still more surgery to stop the bleeding and then home. After dinner, Ron and Vickie had to return to the hair salon to pick up the other van. What an ordeal! I refuse to call the doctor or see an ER anytime this weekend no matter what happens. I will not ruin my daughter's weekend. Something tells me that this could have something to do with the platelet count. The hematologist tests that he ordered take quite some time to get back, so hopefully next week I should know something. I will probably be reading this weekend, but doubt that I post much. I am very weak and tired and am trying to save all my strength for and her party. Love to all. Gentle, tender, angel hugs Debs in FL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 18, 2002 Report Share Posted May 18, 2002 Deb I am so sorry to hear that you are havings such problems and hope things clear up soon for you. But if seeing a doc might help, I'm sure your family would want you to do that, don't be too steadfast in that decision. I know we get tired of the disapointments this life sometimes deals us but we often need to give in and do what we need to do no matter what. You know your family wants the best for you, which in turn gets them the best OF you. You are in my prayers Judy in Indy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 18, 2002 Report Share Posted May 18, 2002 Hi Debs, Sorry to hear that you are having so much trouble with the bleeding. This sounds pretty alarming to me. I think that you should really call the dr. and demand some results. It could be because of the platelet count. I know that the surgeons advised me before my back surgery last week that this could happen because of the meds that I have been taking and not to take any anti inflammatories or aspirin for at least a week before the surgery. With the blood loss that you are experiencing, you could become anemic and that could make everything more complicated. Please, don't feel that you are inconveniencing anyone or making a fuss if you need help, you didn't ask for this problem, but it sounds like something that needs attention.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2002 Report Share Posted May 18, 2002 Hi Debs, I haven't been able to get on the computer wasn't acting right. I think Laurie fixed it though. I sent a message through to the group but I don't think it went through. I hope you are resting, I am worried about you. I can understand you not wanting to go to the ER but please be careful. Just sit back and do nothing. You are in my prayers. Enjoy tomorrow but please rest Lynn (MeMom) ---------- > From: Auntblabbie2000@... > > Subject: [ ] Still Hemorrhaging > Date: Saturday, May 18, 2002 12:46 AM > > Hi Guys, > > Will keep this short.

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2002 Report Share Posted May 20, 2002 Debs, I hope your knee held up this weekend so that you could enjoy your daughter's confirmation. Is it still bleeding? a Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
