5 weeks ago my leg swelled up and I was hospitalized for a week with dvt or blot clot. The blot clot was high in my belly and was large in size. They put me on cumadin(blood thinner) and released me after a week. I went to my family doctor the very next week and complained of a swolen tonsil on the left side. There was no sore throat accompanied with it. He swapped my tonsil and checked it for strep. He said it would go away.

A week later my tonsil started bleeding and it wouldn't stop. I went to the emegency room and my cumadin level was too high. I went back to my family doctor and he sent me to a ENT. He scheduled me a surgery to remove the tonsil and biobsy it on 8/16. a pet scan 8/8 and told me that we would consult with the radiation department and chemo department for treatment.

I allways thought they needed to biopsy the tissue before the diagnoses.

I have had the pet scan but have not recieved the results. This comming week I will have the tonsil removed.

I am wondering if the DVT was caused by cancer. Has anyone else had any experience like this ?
