History Of Blood Clots, Leg Pain, Tingling, DVT Done, On Warfarin, Diagnosed Enlarged Spleen And Upper GI Issue. Any Advice?
Hi there. I have a history of blood clots and a disorder of factor five leiden. I am having pains in my left leg which is the leg I had a major DVT in before. I am currently on warfarin because I have had 2 major DVTs. Also, my family physician says I have an enlarged spleen and an upper GI issue, but she says I can't get in for an upper GI test for at least l5 months. My left hand is tingling and when I stand up from sitting or bending down I just about pass out. I am concerned that all of these issues are related. Any advice for me?

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The tingling and the passing out on standing could be related to cervical spondylosis or a middle ear disease. Taking warfarin should help in decreasing the leg pains that you are having.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
