PICC Line Issues

Starting to worry that my PICC line may be clotting. I am unable to use heparin so I have to flush with saline several times a day. Tonight we did the flush and aspiration and one side went exactly the way you want it to, the other did not give any blood flow. I am freaking out!

They had to try four different spots to place this thing and if it blows then the thought of having ANOTHER put in makes me want to scream in agony.

I also see the doctor tomorrow. Last appointment she sent me straight over to be admitted. I hope this does not happen again. I am on home health now so hopefully this will just be a quick check and then back home. I hope!
