Hi everyone,
I'm ill with a cold/flu and home from work, so the inactivity has probably sent my mind into overdrive.
I looked at my right leg and there is a definite 'dent' on my calf about half way down the leg just below the big calf muscle. I can see it clearly and feel it and it looks noticeably different to my left leg. I am sure it must be new because I would've noticed it before!
STUPIDLY i googled and now i'm convinced it's muscle wastage and i have ALS or something. It doesn't hurt or anything and i don't remember injuring my leg - it just looks so weird, i'm convinced it must be a sign of something bad!
I just called my GP and they don't have any appointments til monday and i can't take it then because i'm already off work today so it will look awful to my bosses!
I am so stressed and upset and i'm not even sure why...has anyone else had anything like this?? I'm a 23yr old female who plays a lot of sport if that helps at all...
Any advice would be hugely helpful - really panicking :weep:
