A few weeks back you all helped and advised me re my mums end of treatment scan etc. Thank you again!
We managed to get that booked in today. Saw the oncologist an hour after and the results were available.
Good news is my mum is now NED. CA125 now 12. Stage 3A and grade 3.
Should be bouncing off the walls but my mum now has a long segment thrombus in the right internal lilac vein. It’s very large apparently.
Does anyone have any advise regarding this blood clot? She has been put on fragmin for the next 8 weeks and is being referred to the royal free in London to see the vascular team.
Thank you!

I don’t know much about thrombosis but I do know it is good news that they have diagnosed the problem at an early stage. Unfortunately thrombosis is one of the many and varied risks we can face. My own blood clot travelled to my heart which complicated things a bit. But I had the best treatment possible as your mum will have and soon bounced back.
Ihad a pulmonary embolism following surgery and was put on fragmin for several months. I believe it cleared up quite quickly. I don’t know about this particular clot but it is good that she has been diagnosed and is on the right medication.
