Please, never inject, install drips or stick needles in a limb that is affected by CMTC. This might cause thrombosis.
I'll ask our CMTC members worldwide what kind of experience they have in this area.
Is this true for immunizations as well? Many blood tests are done in the heels of infants which affects my son as he has marking over his entire feet. I'm also interested to learn more.
Do you believe in alternative medicine? I know of herbal products which did wonders to patients who already lost hope. Many testimonies have been made by people who have recovered from dreaded diseases like this. You have nothing to lose by trying this.
I think it is important to remember this syndrome is not something you "catch" but is genetic you are born with it. It's not really something you can recover from.
I agree with Lex that there should be a "no stick" order in your vocabulary when it comes to the CMTC markings. We deal with superficial blood clots everyweek with Ellayna and it's not a worry I would want to add too by allowing "sticks" or even BP readings over the markings. Added to that we deal with Hemi on her left side and we are down to 3 places to do blood draws, shots or IV's but we manage.
