lump in leg??

Question

I have a lump in my leg and its been there for over a year. i went to the hospital and saw MANY docs and they would all send me home and tell me to put something cold on it. I did but it never went away.They did blood test and said its not a blood cloth in the big vein but it could be in smaller vein then they send me home again...about a month ago a doc sent me to pass an ultrason on my leg and they said it looks like a lump of dilated vein?!? What is that? they didnt say if its dangerous or not..anyway i gtg for more test but it could take another few months..the lump is in my mid calf and its growing alot! also im on ortho evra..could it cause that?? I dont know what to do

Answer 1

Yes, the Ortho Evra could be the one causing this. I know of someone who had a huge problem with blood clots because of that product, and another girl who had a stroke from it.

I would recommend getting another opinion but from a vascular doctor if you haven't already to see what they say as well as talk to another gynecologist (preferably someone that does not share the same office of the doctor you currently see).
