Hi again~

I believe there was someone here who had a comment about my posting regarding a subclavian clot. Is there a way to chat directly with individuals here? Since my last posting a week ago, I was re-admitted to the hospital for chest pain. It felt like someone was sticking a hot poker into my heart. As it turns out, my heart was fine, but I now have another diagnosis of Costochondritis ( no, it's not a city in Mexico). Also, my doctor informed me that my subclavian clot is 3 inches long. No one seems to know how it got there, but I have a theory. Is it feasable that since my PM surgery last July that a small clot formed and has been slowly growing for 8 months? Is that possible?
I've been to the chat room a couple of times but haven't found anyone to chat with. I will try again soon. Thank you for all the helpful information here!
