Leya Falcon Healing From Surgery Complications

Porn star Leya Falcon suffered complications from an elective surgery that has left her with blood clots in both of her lungs and Falcon will be unable to performer on camera for quite a while.  Here's what Falcon describes happening to her in a statement that she released.

July 22nd I had gone under for an elective tummy tuck surgery to not only remove the loose skin on my abdomen but to repair my muscles that no amount of diet or exercise could repair, this is something that I had wanted for a very VERY long time and I took every precaution possible to make sure my surgery was successful but unfortunately some complications have risen.

Very early morning on July 3rd (probably about 4 am) I was having extreme pain in my left lung upon inhalation and decided to play it safe and have the ER check it out as it was not getting any better. After a series of tests the doctor came in and said “yep you have clots, not just in your left lung but in your right as well.” Needless to say this diagnosis took me completely off guard. It has been attributed to either my birth control pills I was on, my recent surgery or possibly a mixture of both and unfortunately there is no definitive answer or way to pin point the EXACT cause.

The medical term for what I am experiencing at the moment is pulmonary embolism, which is something I really have only ever heard of on those class action lawsuit commercials for the elderly you see play during daytime television. Being that I am relatively healthy, exercise daily, eat well, avoid drugs and am a very avid viewer of The Dr. Oz Show, I never saw this happening to me especially at the age of 27.

I have been in the hospital the past few days and the journey to healing has just begun. I am extremely lucky to be alive at this point as I came in just in time for these embolisms to be caught before they could travel from my lungs to my heart causing fatality. From what the doctors are telling me, I will be on self administered blood thinning injections daily for the next 6 to 9 months provided everything goes smoothly.

Though the prognosis of my living is very good, I am disappointed to say that during my time of healing I am going to be unable to perform because of my risk of bleeding to death as a side effect of the blood thinners. I will not even be able to dance as that also holds with it a high risk of injury (especially with my high energy performances) and therefore a high risk of excessive and possibly deadly bleeding.

I checked in with Falcon about what is going on with her and here's what she had to say exclusively to Fleshbot readers--

I appreciate your love and support during this scary time, please never take your own lives or health for granted as it can be taken from you at any second. Please continue sharing the kindness you all have been showing me with everyone else out there in the world.

I am on the road to recovery right now and am very fortunate to still have my life at this point. Though this is going to take several months to overcome, I assure you all that I will be back performing whenever the doctors deem it safe again for me, I love what I do too much to just quit like that!

For those that need an immediate Leya fix they are in luck! During my recovery I will be working on designing and selling merchandise, which has been a ton of fun for me so far.

Thank you all for your continued love and support.

There are multiple ways to help Falcon.  You can join her website to help support her while she can't work and enjoy all of the things she has on there now.  There is also a GoFundMe that is up to help Falcon with her living expenses and medications during the nine months that she will be unable to work.  When there is more info about her merch, I will share that.  She is a sweet girl dealt a rough blow to her health and any help you could spare would be appreciated.
