i had a shitty one to mate. nothing like that but very very worrying.

just got back from america, i broke my leg very badly while i was out there, (had to have surgery, 6" plate 8 screws and all this crap), and saturday i started to get weird pains in the bad leg. after looking up about DVT - deep vein thrmbosis, and realising i have all the symptoms, i went to the hospital. they took blood for some tests, examind my leg then came back and told me theres abnormalities in my blood and that i might have DVT! its fuckign worrying because if youve got a clot, and a bit breaks off, it can travel to you heart or brai and cause a stroke, or to your lugs which is potentially fatal.....

had to have ultrasound scans and everything, been the worst weekend of my life, not slept at all. they think im clear at the minute, but ive got all the symptoms pointing towards getting a blood clot. so i need to eb careful, and be aware that its a posibilty

i know its noting like losing a friend, but never the less, your not the only one whos had a shit weekend mate.
