How long does it take to go back to working out?I had a DVT in my right calf a month ago.I am a 33yr old male.I am on 17 1/2 grams of warfarin they say my liver is good processing it.I now walk a mile and have shortness of breath and have to elevate my leg because the blood pools to my foot even when I just got the support stockings.I've used to run five mile a week and work out with free weights.I was advised to swim but I was wondering when I could got back to the gym or run outside?Does this last a while......? or for life? I usually bounce back from things I had cancer 5 yrs ago.I have the pressure stockings 30-40 pressure and they help a lot.The symptoms of baldness remind me of the chemotherapy.I am naturally bald any ways.So to all the DVT suffers keep your heads up there are always worse medical conditions that I see a lot....because I work in a medical feild.
