May Thurner Syndrome Forums

Hello all, I was diagnosed last Aug/Sept. and had two stents placed Sept. 1st. I've had problems with my legs for the last 6 years but am opposite from most others. I have never experienced swelling nor have I had any clots. Apparently with those two things not present it wasn't easy to diagnose. I do experience pain in both legs equally constantly. With enough pushing of my doctors I finally got them to send me to a vascular surgeon since I have a history of dvt in my family I thought it may be something vascular. Immediately he said may be a long shot but I'd like to check you for May Thurners within a month I was having stents placed. Unfortunately since that time my pain has worsened still no swelling and the discoloration of my feet has gotten tremendously worse. I had an ultra sound done about a month ago and stents are still in place and look great but I have a diseased vein in my left leg and go in on Apr. 1st for a endovenous ablation. Hopefully fingers crossed that will assist with the pain I've been experiencing I'm willing to try anything at this point. I am on daily aspirin but no thinners since I've never had any issues with clotting. I feel I have one of the best doctors there are out there since for the first time I feel someone actually believes me. He continues to push to figure out why I'm still in so much pain and that makes him awesome in my book Thanks for accepting me here it's nice to be surrounded by people who may understand a bit of what I'm going through rather than explaining it over and over to people who look at me like I'm nuts or just a big baby!!!
