Yes, push her to agree on getting the ultrasound - as good as most doctors are, they do occassionally overlook something like a clot.
You stated you did have a bruise - so we know that something in your leg bled - and then eventually created a clot. If that clot is any real size and breaks away...
Hey Jammer125, sorry to hear of your current leg issue.
This triggered a memory for me - and I thought I would suggest that you go get a soft tissue ultrasound scan done to confirm whether or not your calf now has a blot clot at the site of the injury (?). The scary part of this type of injury...
I think change the engine oil, rear drive oil, hydraulic fluids (clutch and brakes), look her over for signs of dry rot throughout on rubber bushings, seals, etc.
Likely need to run some Seafoam or similar cleaner through the fueling system (a couple different tanks full?).

Thanks for jumpin in here Mophead - yikes,. I've always felt a bit wary of those liftjacks, concerned about an unfortunate left or right topple event which could be very expen$ive to fix later. :unsure:

My Gen 3 Feejer has nice Canyon Cages front and rear, and a couple years ago I thought...
