Goldie's Official Cause Of Death. by Dariye(m): 6:08pm On Feb 16, 2013
Dont be Ignorant of this, Pls
Read and be informed.

Goldie's Official Cause of death
is DVT, this is some information
on it. meanwhile, i'm only
posting this as an educative
measure.

DVT is DEEP VEIN
THROMBOSIS. Meaning a blood clot in the large veins in the
thighs or the lower legs.

When
for any reasons such clots
break loose, they may travel
to any part of the body such
as the brain, lungs or heart. Where ever they hit, they'll
block off oxygen from getting
through.

If it hits the brain for
example, it will lead to
cerebral ischemia, whereby
brain cells die very quickly and of course, we are facing
massive stroke in such
patients.

Where clinical
intervention is not rapid, death
follows rapidly. When such
clots hit the lungs, we say such patients threw a P/E.
Pulmonary embolism. Lungs
got occluded, starved of
oxygen and oxygenated blood
and of course Death within a
short while.

Same thing for the clot in the heart. This
syndrome is peculiar to older
people, but can hit younger
people too. Those who are
genetically disposed to it,
those who smoke or who are on birth control pills or
estrogen for menopausal
syndrome are susceptible to it.
Also, those who are couch
potato or immobile are prone
to DVT. One candid advise is for long distance travellers to take
81mg of Aspirin before
boarding and to do leg exercise
if they can't move about in the
plane . Aspirin is a blood
thinner. One would rather risk the temporary discomfort of
Ulcer than a DVT. Besides, the
81mg is a baby aspirin. It could
have saved her life. People
should encourage doctors to
do their CBC and Pt/ Ptt and the dimer test to see if they
are prone to this syndrome.



May God rest her soul.
