WOW! I am so touched by the caring responses....thank you soooo very much! Several have asked what caused it....my husband is a heavy equipment operator and sits 10-12 hours a day without a break. The bent knees and lack of movement are the culprit. He had severe pain in August and we ended up in the ER....they thought he had pleursy and sent him home the next day. When he got the same pain, we "KNEW" it was Pleursy again and were back in the ER because he could barely breath. This time it just got worse and worse. Now we know that he had to have had a blood clot(s) then and was misdiagnosed. Thank God it didn't kill him between then and now. Again, I really want to thank each of you for responding....it really helps so much to come on and find that so many care and are praying for us. |
