First to go this morning regarding my cellulitis, only to end up at hospital.

Have pain in right thigh, new, my calf was swollen. He thinks DVT.

Got to A&E to have a long day. Blood tests, history. My history scored high so doctor at hospital said regardless of results of blood test they would treat me as if I have clot, till scan days otherwise.

Blood test did come back negative. So injection in belly, today, tomorrow and Sunday. Getting scan on Monday, unless they have cancelation tomorrow

I must have mis-read messages. They are not keeping me in hospital. They let me home, I have to go in daily

Take care Liz am I right in thinking you won't know if you have a clot until scan on Monday, I think it has got confused as your blood test was clear.

Whichever way it goes take care and get plenty of rest

Big hugs Sheryl
