Venaseal Reaction
Hi there,
I just wanted to share a bit about my experience and ask for advice from those who have dealt with something similar.
I had Venaseal on both GSVs from the knee down. Procedure was a bit painful but quick and pretty easy, as was recovery. I had previously had thermal ablation on other veins (or parts of the same vein?) a few years ago.
Well, I developed a reaction to the glue 7 days post procedure on one leg which then triggered the same reaction on my other leg, which had been done 7 days prior to that.
Antihistamines did not work. Prednisone was prescribed for one week and has not helped. The pain is only increasing as is the itching. There are times of the day it is almost unbearable. I am currently 16 days post procedure on one leg and 9 days post procedure on the other. I will be calling my doctor on Monday and would love any advice for what to say or ask for. I know people have had reactions to this, but had anyone dealt with it when meds don’t work? Please help save me time and give me tips that will cut to the chase with my doctor.
