These people, telling you to listen to the doctor.......take it easy..........BAH, what do they know.
What you need to do, is put me in your will for what ever Infi you have, then live it up. I am talking heavy drinking and smoking at least 4 packs a day.............Especially if you have a straight handled Satin Jack!!!!!!!
But seriously, listen to the doctors and try to take it easy (but really you need to put me in your will for all The infi).
Good luck. MY older brother spent 2 weeks in the hospital for his 21st birthday for a major blood clot. A double recessive gene for blood clotting (called Factor 5 if I remember correctly, we all had to go get tested for it), turned out to have gotten from both parents. Blood thinners for the rest of his life. The important part is that you are doing something about it.
Chest pain, radiating arm pain, lung pain, etc, go to the emergency room immediately. Not worth the risk.
We are pulling for you.
