anyone ever had a DVT??
Just being a paranoid hypochondriac here, but I just wanted to know if anyone here has ever suffered from a blood clot in their calf or thigh.
My left calf is very sore, but I'm 95% sure it's muscular. I'll definately bring up the subject at my next Dr's appt in a couple days but I am paranoid being on BCP past 35 (I dont smoke)
I want someone who's been there done that, to describe the pain. I have absolutely no swelling, no redness, just sore especially when I bend or get my muscles in certain positions. A couple of nights this past month though I've had cramps in that calf that wake me up and I have to stand on my leg, usually if I've moved my leg in a weird position. The cramps are comparable to those you get in the arch of your foot sometimes!!
I'm thinking maybe I have a tight muscle, but being a nurse I always jump to the worse conclusion.
thanks!
