I came home from hospital last night after 15 days in ,it started with being in pain all night ,then a painful swollen leg next morning,I had a small sore on my leg ,which Id told my Dr about,she said if it got worse let them know,as it was Saturday I rang 111 & they sent an ambulance, After Several hours in A&E i was admitted, After a day & night in 1 ward I was sent to another at 11 pm, then after a day & night there I was sent to another ward ,again at 11 pm,It was discovered that the blood was not flowing up my leg & I had an ulcer,so they removed a large varicose vein from my leg,& 2 days later sent me home.I am in a lot of pain & have a distric nurse coming to dress the wounds tomorrow

Poor you. That sounds horrible but I'm glad you're home now. I know it hurts now but I also know from living alongside my OH that, with proper dressings and care, miracles can be wrought with leg ulcer/varicose vein conditions so please don't despair. It WILL improve. :bighugs:
