What Causes Leg Swelling With Blood Clotting And Stool Odor?
Hi I have had an intestinal obstruction repair 6months ago.I had a tumor removed which was cancer,but doctor told me it did not spread.Not sure if that is true.Doctor did cut off quite alot from my big and small intestines. Now i am well only my legs are swollen with blood clots and the injections are not helping at all.When i do go to toilet it really has a bad odour and i go very frequent to the toilet. I wonder if you could tell me do you think i have cancer?I am 70years old. Thanks Anton

pet scan is warranted for disease status.
Lower limbs doppler is also needed for clot location.
Medical oncologist consult is needed.
