Family are in the back with us and the patient. Seatbelt on of course. If a second family member then they ride up front or if the patient is sick and we are working on them in the back and don't want the family to see or get in the way.

Dwayne, I am not in the habit of giving online advice, but this is a pretty serious situation. You likely had a DVT months ago and possibly have another one or problems relating to the prior DVT. Additionally, you have some risk factors that could exacerbate the situation. The good news is that many DVT's are conservatively managed with anticoagulation and watchful waiting. However, you are not exactly in a controlled environment. I know you probably do not want to hear this but you need to be evaluated at a place capable of providing "progressive" medicine. I think you should come home as well and be closely followed. It sucks bro, but you have big responsibilities and people who rely on you. Please do not let this one go like the last experience. There certainly is a chance it could follow a similar course, but the stakes are incredibly high. PM me if you want to talk specifics.
