Eights weeks out - new issues-
 
Hi All

I am eight weeks out from surgery and feeling O.K. Started to drive and sit a little,Still no P.T.

New symptoms not spine related I think?

My ankles are itchy, with little red dots, veins in left leg are black and blue with some swelling?

Went to the Dr. office to get it checked out. I have Vasculitis
It is the inflammation of the Veins due to medication.

Could not figure out which medication that is causing this

Has anyone heard or had this????

Thanks

Gil

hmmm
 
Gil,
I think you have to have a pretty thorough workup and from what I know vasculitis can be related to immune system response with inflammation of the arteries/vascular system (that much is obvious).. different cases/different causes such as related to a insect bite or virus or something of this nature.

What is your doctor doing to treat it?? What medicines are you taking that might have that as a reaction as a possibility?

sorry to hear of this development and hope you are getting proper treatment.
