A member asked:
Low risk of dvt. had major autohemotherapy and out of anxiety got ddimer done. came back .60 under.50 normal. should i worry or just joints inflammed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Can contact the Dr.: If the doctor who did "autohemotherapy" and re-injected a patient's blood into locations where those amounts of blood don't naturally belong, the patient can contact the doctor to discuss D-dimer, how much the therapy should affect test results, whether or not such tests are valid after "therapy", etc...
