well after 3 weeks of pain, tingling and stabbing twinges in my left leg, i had another uneventful meet with a gp yesterday.
again, apparently no swelling=no clot?
no matter how excruciating the pain is?
anyway today I've noticed the pain is very bad in my inner thigh at the top.
it's a really deep dull ache.
and what scared me even.more is the fact it actually looks a little swollen now - it seems some fluid has accumulated there and the area is very tender.
now my main fear is that the clot has dislodged and is now in my groin :(
however i must also mention im having pms pains and sometimes when i get my period i can feel these hard sore lumps in my groin and apparently they are lymph nodes.
this pain seems worse though and i cant feel any hard lumps...its right on that big artery/vein that runs towards the groin, that hard kind of artery. i know any mention of nodes sparks cancer fears in some...but i would rather this was a node than a clot! :/
and i also have this cold tingly patch on my calf.
anyway im still on edge, very much.
the pain is baaad. i have never felt anything like this before.
every doctor i go to looks at me like im mad and it seems even a blood test is out of the question!
