Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Yes I need to see a hematologist in Fall River Ca. or close by. I need a special kind of port put in. My blood is so thick it clots and they have a very hard time getting any blood. I m a very hard stick, that s why the port. The Dr. that was going to put a regular port in said I was hjgh risk and wants me to go to UC Davis which is a 7-8 hour drive one way. I need a Dr. close by. Can you help me?
You were having a history of high risk intercourse so you should do a STD test. I can't say that you are infected but to calm yourself you should get tested.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Olgeta Xhufka, General & Family Physician
