a venous doppler indicates the blood flow in your arm...............whether you have a blood clot is one of the things it checks...............

That ER sounds like the ER in the VA hospital I go to in Virginia after you've sat there about 8 hours waiting to get in. I hope the arm gets better soon.

Tntea! It's GOTTA get better BEFORE It gets Worse! I wake/sleep SOME kind of pain everyday from multiple fracures I've gotten over the yrs. but I'm not a pill for pain person so I try to get through the day/nite as best as I can! That works for me but u need to check urself with another doc. Most of them don't like to take over another docs case but I think u NEED another opinion. Good Luck and Get Well Soon
