I haven't been outside in almost a year... I am afraid I'll have to pee or that I'll fall etc. I have actually come to the point I am afraid to go outside. When I do leave the house.. for Doctor's appointments and whatnot we have to call a rescue to transport. I live on the 2nd floor with seriously steep stairs and they take me down on a board. I have been graced with the almighty issue of clotting and pulmonary embolisms due to inactivity. I have people come in to take my blood every week. The Doctors basically said if I won't go in for them to say "How are you feeling" for the typical response of "fine" they will stop calling in my blood thinners.. My fear of going out for them to ask how I am is in direct conflict with the fact if they stop calling in the prescription there's a HUGE chance Ill end up clotting for the third time. My question is.. does anyone have any experience with this or know how one would be able to find some sort of in-home Doctor? Thanks for your time. Holly
