Her back hurt, pain in her back too, from the right knee went up to where she had angioplasty surgery 6 or 7 times, over there the pain very bad, then slowly went away and moved to her left shoulder was still hurting really bad. Last Saturday her left leg below the knee started to hurt extremely bad, she did not sleep well at night because the pain was so bad. Her mouth was so dry because she was a diabetic. She stated when her mouth got so dry, she started to have breathing problems so her son called the ambulance. She went to the ER once was not admitted they ordered x-rays for wrong side, said they would redo them and they said she had to leave, so she did not get them. They checked her blood pressure, and she had took her pills in the morning, she did not feel like she wants to eat anything, her blood pressure was 189 over she did not know because such was in such bad pain. The patient also stated on Sunday she was in the hospital in ER, when she got home Monday started first time in the garage, this bothered her. She had two steps, it felt like someone cut leg, like have no leg, she missed the step and after that it happened a couple times more. It happened at work too, where her leg gave out. Went home and used her right leg to clean with paper towel on the floor. It happened again, and she fell on the floor. When she went upstairs, with her 4 pounds dog, her right hand, held the wall and still have 2 stairs to go completely up it happened again, if she did not hold the wood, she would have fell down the stairs. On 29Jun2021 (today) was the first time she fell on the floor. She cannot stand it, the pain in her leg, she was a diabetic, took pain killers. When she started all of this pain, down where was the foot both were swollen. They went down after more than one week, very bad swelled. She had varicose veins for 40 years, and doctor thought it was related to that. Her left around knee was completely numb, physician ordered x-rays, no answers yet. She called her doctor and seen him two times, on her knee and left leg waiting for x-ray. She just starts to fall on the floor from where ever she was. She stated today was the first time she did not expect it. She just fell down and hit elbow on the chair. She took the clopidogrel bisulfate (PLAVIX) and if she hurt herself she got black and blue, if she cut herself she bleed like hell. She was told just hold on, just hold on she had it two weeks and then it went away. The ER doctor made a huge mistake to the ultrasound and x-ray to wrong leg and then they kicked her out. She cannot work and walk on her floor, and the pain she went through every single day and night and crucial when she lay down, did not know what to do. The patient also reported that her sugar was 312 and they told her they have to go to the hospital and took her to (withheld). The doctor came and talked to her and she told him what happened and asked him what was the pain. They checked her out and did ultrasounds and x rays, they did her right leg instead of her left leg. It was her left leg up to her knee that hurts. They took her back to her room and told her they would bring her back for the left side but they never did and they kicked her out so she came home. Monday she walked in the garage and she had 2 steps to go inside the garage, her left leg started to go down but she held onto something so she did not go down.

X-rays were ordered one week ago and still no results. Her left knee was numb completely and the doctor told her it was because there was swelling at the knee and he gave her some gel to use, the pain did not want to go away and the numbness did not want to go away. Today she went to work and she was sent on break, when she was done with the work, her dog peed in the corner and she tried to clean it up and her left leg hurt again and she was cleaning it up with a paper towel with her right leg and she fell and hit the chair with her elbow. Her knee got completely numb especially at night and she cannot sleep, no way, she told her doctor cardiologist and he said to take medication for pain. With the second one, her hand did not hurt and she did not have no taste in her mouth but after 2 weeks this pain started, she was scared to walk because did not want to fall down and hit her head, when she fell today, she hit the chair with her elbow and bruised it. The left leg went down when she least expects it, she had her hand on her little dog and her other hand, right hand, was holding the rail and she was almost up the stairs, only had 2 more steps and she was completely up and she was luckily she did not go all of the way back down. She held the wall or chair, she had to go to work. She took paracetamol (TYLENOL) and codeine 2 times a day because she cannot stand the pain.
