 Why does he think my left side pain is a blood clott... I thought the the left side pain was from removing medication and being more active

 HUH, weird.  Do you have a specific spot of pain or heat?

Maybe he is just being cautious??? I had left side pain for weeks and I think most people did. But PLEASE follow your docs orders.

 If it was a blood clot you definitely wouldn't be on here posting. When I threw a clot to the lung I thought I was going to die. Even so, its a good idea to get it checked out. Best of luck to you.

Your abdomen is a VERY rare place to have a clot, so i wouldn't worry too much about it.  Definitely better to be safe than sorry.  Let us know what the doctor finds.
