Re: Circulatory problem, maybe blood clot in arm

...
I'm thinking maybe I've got a blood clot in right arm,
possibly as well as a general circulatory problem
that might merit treatment.

To get a pro med opinion on such issue, what kinda
"specialist" should I consult? A "Vascular Surgeon"?
A "Hematologist"?

I look in the ins. providers directory for something
like "Circulatory Specialist" and I get Nothing, Nada,
and Zilch ...

Thanks,
Puddin'

...definitely a vascular surgeon . You will likely get a
sonogram .

The ultrasound stuff can maybe detect a blood clot? That'd
be welcome news.

Much thanks,
Puddin'



....I have had 4 instances of acute thrombosis from
I.V. punctures .Luckily they were in superficial veins
but 2 did end up infected with me having to go
back for I.V. antibiotics .
