Did the doctors check at all for any signs of a pulmonary embolism in your lung. Almost sounds like the same problems I had. Has your broken leg been swollen much? My leg had swollen up and caused a blood clot to form which then broke off and went through my heart and into my right lung. Couldn't breath and was in severe pain.

Hang in there dude. I can remember going days without a single minute of relief. Then one day, you realize you need both hands to count the minutes that you were pain-free. :(

Was in the hospital for almost two weeks...every day they gave me hepron (sp?. The drug that prevents clotting. Knee still swollen, but not bad...the bruise I did have stretched from my hip to the ankle and engulfed the whole outside of my leg.

CT scans didn't show anything out of the ordinary except for blood surrounding my lung, in which they drained about a liter of blood. Still had a little left when they released me the first time as the doc didn't think it would cause a stir.

Get in a hot tub and you'll see how bruised you are.

At WTR, I got in the hot tub after my last falls (2). My head and neck were bruised, and from foot to neck, the bruising extended around 2/3 of my body. I looked like a kaleidoscope. Made for a neat appearance at the nudist resort and I made a great conversation piece.
