I've had them in my left leg this is the second time I've had the first ones I had in my left leg then moved to my lungs back in aug 17th 2011.

Is the ankle doctor aware of your blood clots? If not, why don't you phone his/her office and give them the details of your recent blood clots and the name of the doctor who cared for you. They can work together for a successful surgery.

I have had leg blood clots and an ultrasound is only good at that moment as things can change. If they are all on the same page, they may send you for an ultrasound the day before the surgery. I imagine they will monitor you very closely!
