cruizin01 Posted January 18, 2021 Report Share Posted January 18, 2021 My wife is the lead at one of the local hospitals Interventional Radiology and her dept is crazy busy right now with what appears to be direct and indirect covid related procedures. She had 3 cases in one day with patients who had covid within the past few weeks, that all had some sort of life threatening Potential "side affect". One had a stroke, one a pulmonary embolism, and another with a venous clot. All pretty healthy middle-aged people. No proof that covid caused it but scarey regardless. Shes also had countless patients that have deferred care WAY past when it was needed. One recently was a woman who came in after weeks of feet pain, only to find out she had an aortic clot which cut off circulation to her leg. When she was examined all her toes were black. Eventually she lost her leg because she was likely too stubborn to come in to the hospital because of covid. Stressful times we're in. Get your vaccine peeps!
