I developed a hematoma 10 days after my 5th child was born, and my doctor drained it, and it healed up quickly. 10 days after my 6th child was born, I developed another. This one needed surgery to drain it. The surgery went well, and I was feeling much better the next day. Well, a couple days later, another one formed. (I had been in bed trying to heal- not up and around.) It has been quite painful. My daughter is 6 weeks old, and I am only now able to somewhat sit up without a lot of pain.
I had an angiogram on 12/27/12. Since having my leg is hurting in the thigh area and in the groan area. Put ice on groan area and heating pad on thigh. Called hospital where procedure was done, said this is normal. When I walk I am limping. Really painful. IS THIS NORMAL. this is my first angiogram. Worried about clotting in the leg.
So four days ago I went in for a same day MRI because i had a weird (i would call it tingling) sensation in the left side of my face. Well to my shock the radiologist read the scan as "subdural hematoma with no mass effect" so i was promptly whisked to the hospital right then and there...
I ended up spending 48 hours at the hospital where the most eventful thing that happened was a CT Angiogram which apparently was "Normal".
My husband in 2004 had a brain injury fractured skull and bleeding in the brain Epidural Hematoma at the Occipital and left Temporal area. Then about a year later his Cerebellum started to Atrophy and the Dr.'s can't explain why they are stumped. Question: When my husband lifts his head hyperextends as to look up passed midpoint eye level his right ear goes deaf the left ear the sound is like he is in a tunnel everything goes white and he passes out.
The cath was negative but there is a hematoma at my right groin site that they think may be pressing against the nerve. I have pain in my leg and it is also in the bottom of my foot and ankle. Being a nurse I am freaking out that it might be a blood clot. I had an ultrasound done one week ago which showed the hematoma and my pulses are good both pedal and post tibial. I spoke with the doctor and he said to give it a week.
my dad had an angiogram last tuesday. He developed a lump about 2 days ago (one week after the procedure), with a little bit of pain. This morning, he was doing some household cleaning and began bleeding from the incision, about 10 drops all together. After the bleeding stopped he noticed that the lump grew to the diameter of a quarter, but does not rise above the skin very much. He said the pain was very minor and now he is feeling no pain at all.
If there is an optical interruption due to hematoma, then this will have to be drained with caution. Steroids are given to reduce swelling. You are in good hands but take a second opinion from another eye surgeon. Take care!
I have just been scheduled for an angiogram and I'm scared to no end I have a 3 year old son I love to death same as my soon to be wife. I'm so scared something will go wrong during the surgery how coming are complications? Also my ej is 73 is this bad?
You better check with your doctors, I am not sure about the potential damage due to the radiation dose that you will take during the procedure.
Also if they discover blockages in your coronaries, I do not know about the risk of the medication that you will need.
After a cardigraph treadmill test I'm being referred for angiogram - I'm going on holiday in two weeks with a 3 hour flight. Should I travel?
My partner is having an angiogram after suffering chest pains a few weeks ago. NAD was found at the time from blood tests and ECG (done over 18 hours). Was kept in overnight. Had no discomfort since, but suffers from type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure and cholesterol which are all controlled and low due to medication.
His chest pains were 4 weeks ago and he's had nothing since.
my mother is suffering from chest pain now Doctor is saying to go for angiogram test?
Has anyone had an angiogram with the catheter inserted in arm or neck instead of the groin? I don't think I could take the groin without serious nerve spasms.
hey my dad is suppose to go in for an angiogram but he fears what might happen to him if he does. i was wondering if there was possible any alternative procedure or something else he could possibly do.
how do i intepret an angiogram result? to know which is left or right? how to know if there is a block?
A CT angiogram is more sensitive than a straight forward angiogram. They both rely on a radioactive substance being injected into your blood stream and it's this which the scanners pick up. If a CT angiogram doesn't reveal a vessel, then no way will an angiogram.
I had a vein that was closed after a bypass procedure and they looked for 30 minutes in a standard angiogram procedure to try and find it.
I think another angiogram is your best option personally. It will show how clear your vessels are but ask them to do a FFR on your coronary arteries. This is a tiny sensor which gives the cardiologist the blood flow rate. Without this test, they are simply going by visual signs which is an inaccurate method. I would like to know what your BP was to lower your EF to 15%?
The tests indicated a blockage. I am now waiting for an angiogram. They put me on drugs after the test. I am on 1.25mg Monocor, 5mg Norvasc, 10mg Crestor as well as ASA 81mg - one per day. Now I wait for Angiogram. I am quite freaked out. So I am scheduled for an angiogram on Feb 5th. They tell me there are risks in this test. The risk is 1 in 1000 people die, stroke or have a heart attack during this proceedure. My question is this, Should I get a 64-slice Coronary CT Angiograph​y?
