I am Hema living in US and delivered a baby 6 months ago. i had one leg swelling during my doctor visit and she asked me to take a ultrasound for my leg to check nothing is wrong. I did go to ultrasound after a week and my swelling was also little reduced. But they found some blood clot on my right leg and they said its a DVT and its highly dangerous it may move to my brain or lungs and can cause stroke or PE and may cause death. So they asked me to be on blood thinners(lovenox and heperin during pregnancy and coumadin after delivery) throughout my pregnancy and 3 months after that. i did follow the medication as directed and nothing happened to me or my baby untill now. Now i came to know that blood will dissolve by its own the blood thinners are highly dangerous ,the doctors unnecessarily scared me and put me on medication for a very long time. my swelling went off in 2 days but still unnecessarily they asked me to continue the medicine they took me so many blood tests. now my worries are whether it will give any health issues to my baby or me in future. Please advise me now in on depression because of this. i hate myself for getting such worst treatment during my pregnancy.
