Been there, done that. Pulmonary embolisms are no joke. Had one about 8 years ago. What started out as a dull pain in my rib cage - I thought I pulled a muscle - became a sharp, searing, unbearable pain by the time I was in the hospital. I was told I needed to change careers, avoid likely physical contact, etc because of the medication. Not fun. Life changing.

Blood clots are no joke. Debilitating in fact.

 

I have a very close family member with Factor V Leiden (a genetic predisposition to clotting) and she has been ruled 100% disabled because of it.

She has been on Coumadin for 20 years, (Haparin in emergencies)

 

It's a stroke or Heart attack waiting to happen.

 

My blood pressure just shot through the roof in the past year, I need to get tested for Factor V Leiden and Hypertension.

Never had a blood pressure issue before, but this is how it happens, it is a silent killer.

 

I wish him well, and hope he learns to manage it.

 

100% disabled for carrying Factor V??

She can be on anticoagulants and not be on disability.  Many, many do...

He didn’t even know they had a center.

What the hell does Belicheck do at night anyway? Does he have running water? Cable Tv? Living off the grid.

I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if he has an outhouse that feeds into a pig den.

I would also assume he still uses a VCR.

No what?  You can find a doctor to give you disability for a lot of things.

Yeah...some kind of spartan existence going on...look at the wrinkled hoodies that he wears. He soaks in them in spring water and hangs them overnight to dry!

He hangs upside down from the ceiling and sleeps like a bat or the monster from Jeepers Creepers.
