IN NOV-2009 AFTER ACUTE DEHYDRATION AND SUBSEQUENT RECOVERY, I WAS DIAGNOSED SUFFERING FROM DVT (BELOW RIGHT FEMORAL CALF MUSCLE). ONE TAB OF DISPRIN A DAY WAS ADMINISTERED AND THINGS WERE QUITE NORMAL. ON DISCONTINUING DISPRIN IN OCT-2011 ONCE AGAIN SIMILAR SYMPTOMS WERE EXPERIENCED (NOV-2010) IN LEFT LEG FROM CALF MUSCLE TO ANKLE (THIS WAS ALSO AFTER FOOD POISIONING AND DEHYDRATION).
60 MG CLEXANE SUB-CUT INJECTION WAS ADMINISTERED TWICE DAILY FOR 5 DAYS FOLLOWED BY WARF-5 (STILL CONTINEUD). PROTHOMBIN TIME TEST REFLECTS INR RANGING BETWEEN 1.05 TO 1.3 (POST MEDICATION). SWELLING AROUND ANKLE IS EXPERIENCED ON LONGER SITTING IN OFFICE / FLIGHT/ VEHICLE.
PLEASE ADVISE SUITABLY. IF POSSIBLE ALSO ADVISE DIETARY SUPPLEMENTS WHICH CAN BE HELPFUL IN INCREASING INR AND FOODS WHICH SHOULD BE AVOIDED. AGE-48 YEARS, SEX-MALE, HEIGHT-181 CMS, WEIGHT-96 KG.
