he's at risk of a wembolism
That's super interesting. Sounds like it could be due to him being an athlete repe ive training/movements, trauma etc.
The trauma thing, Blizzardwizard mentioned that GG Jackson fell on his right shoulder a few weeks ago. I wonder if that bit of trauma could have contributed to this?
Does anyone remember if this is also around the time he started having breathing issues, started looking fatigued?
Shortness of breath is a sign; that’s what prompted me to go into the ER in 2021. I work out everyday but gradually I started feeling as if I was lacking cardio, nope I had a PE! Them joints will kill you if not treated properly!! Blood thinner at a low dose will not be to big of a deal ( equivalent to baby aspirin ). Praying for the kid!
so he needs to stop shooting so many 3's
for his health
Bosh’s was more widespread, and in the veins of both legs.
Paget-Schroetter syndrome is a form of primary upper extremity deep vein thrombosis (UEDVT) that typically occurs in young, otherwise healthy individuals following strenuous or repe ive activity involving the upper extremities. This condition is also known as "effort thrombosis" and involves the spontaneous thrombosis of the subclavian or axillary vein.[1-3]
The pathophysiology of Paget-Schroetter syndrome involves compression of the subclavian vein at the thoracic outlet, often exacerbated by repe ive arm movements. This compression can lead to endothelial injury and subsequent thrombosis. Clinical presentation usually includes painful swelling, discoloration, and visible collateral veins in the affected arm.[1-2]
Diagnosis is typically confirmed through imaging modalities such as Doppler ultrasound, venography, or magnetic resonance venography (MRV).[4-5] Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial to prevent complications such as post-thrombotic syndrome and pulmonary embolism.[6]
Management of Paget-Schroetter syndrome generally involves a combination of anticoagulation therapy, thrombolysis, and surgical decompression. Initial treatment often includes catheter-directed thrombolysis to dissolve the clot, followed by anticoagulation to prevent recurrence. Surgical intervention, such as first rib resection and anterior scalenectomy, is frequently performed to relieve the venous compression and prevent future thrombosis.[1-2][7
Keep it comin' tbh
How are you doing now? Are you OK? If you have a PE, I assume that is super dangerous at that point. Do you have to always take blood thinners even if it's a low dose?
Do they know what caused it in your case?
I think this is probably the case. I remembered that when I read the news.
Well, I guess this is a win for Biyombo.
Get well soon Wemby!
DPOY lives on another year before it has to be named after Wemby.
Seriously, hope he gets well and ready to come back with a vengeance next season.
As for this season, I'm on team tank now. Have Fox do his finger surgery, let Sochan get Wemby's shot diet, play Branham at center. I want no more than 23 wins.
His career is sadly over...I'm an ER doctor doesnt mean I'm right but if you ask me if an athlete has a thrombus in their peripheral what it means? I cant imagine him playing longer than 3 years at best. Shame... I routinely diagnose this in sweet old ladies and tell them their days of doing whatever they wanna do are limited now much less a franchise athelete...shame because the kids amazing. Spurs dont deserve this
Shams is saying the Spurs have been running tests on Wemby for the last 48 hours (5:20 mark), so they know everything they need to know. If they say it's not that serious, it's safe to believe them.
I take xyrelto ( however it’s spelled ) everyday because they classified mine as unprovoked. I don’t box anymore but other than that I’m coolI have to be mindful of certain things dietary wise but my clotting factors are pretty normal.
I know it's hard to fathom now, but this could be a blessing in disguise long-term. Imagine if this leads to us getting a top-4 pick and getting one of Flagg, Harper, Bailey, or Edgecombe?
We could be a dynasty for a decade and a half.
I'd be surprised if you've made lead bagboy at the local Whole Foods let alone ER doctor tbh
You’re not being honest…..stop it! You should be ashamed of yourself!
Thought the same (that Jackson play).
Maybe I'm so broken by the Kawhi drama that I'm delusional, but for those saying "what else are the Spurs going to tell their fans," look at what they said about Pop.
Nothing about "optimism," nothing about "full recovery." Just that he had a medical issue and would be gone. I'd imagine they'd have said something similar about Wemby - or - if they wanted to slow play it, say he was out tonight, and then the next game, and then slowly let out that he's out for the season. Given Shams' report that they've been running test on him for the past 48 hours (which, presumably, would include a CT scan), I don't think the organization would have said something like "he'll be fine long term," if they weren't in a position to actually mean it.
PG - Fox
SG - Castle
SF - Vassell
PF - Flagg
C - Wembanyama
Bench: Sochan, Johnson, Atlanta 2025 pick (McNeeley?)
I am...for example for a thrombus you order up a pT/pTT test and an MRA. It's kinda no biggie to be an ER doctor. Again, outside looking in doesnt mean a lot but a thrombus in the shoulder? LMAO you're borderline extra chromosome if you think this isn't career ending. Why would I wish that?
No, bad god after how this last year has been all around
That's fine..don't cry when I bump the thread when he retires soon.
think 6th seed is as good as we can do
