Ache in lower leg....

[AngelHeart]

I have had an ache on and off in lower right leg for about 4 weeks now. Its not in one place but all over, can be in calf, shin, side, knee and a little up my thigh when I sit down. Its not in my upper thigh or bottom.

Does anyone suffer from this or has suffered from it? Getting myself into a dizz that its DVT. Although I am not in high catorgory for it i.e I'm a non smoker, active, blood preasure and cholestral was low in Jan when I had it taken and also i am quite active as I have 3 young children and work 2 jobs, one of which I am on my feet for 4 hours solid. Also in my work I do a lot of bending and streching so wondered if this could have cause it.

The earliest appointment I could get my my DR was tues. I explained to the receptionist about my ache but she didn't seems fazed and never offerd me an earlier appointment!

Any imformation would be great please!

Thanks very much.

P.S Forgot to say, I have no swelling, hardness, lumps, redness or hotness in my leg but I read that you don't have to have any of these symptoms to have DVT anyway ! :-(

Do you think I would have known it was DVT by now as I've had it on and off for 4 weeks??

Thanks xxx
