Hi everyone, this is my first post on nomorepanic :) I’ve been pretty anxious about a behind the knee cramp that turned into a general calf pain for a litte under two weeks. I was reading the blood clot stories so I got a d-dimer the day after the initial pain behind my knee and it was negative. Then I couldnt stop thinking about it and went back and they sent me to set up an appointment with physical therapy. My calf swelled in the shower twice and would have painful cramps so I was so anxious. I went to work on Thursday and ended up having a horrible anxiety attack with bad chest pain and felt like I couldnt breathe- ended up at the ER thinking it was a PE and they found nothing. Got an ultrasound of my leg on Friday and it was negative, so why am I still so anxious about it being a DVT? The pain is now kind of going away but I cant help but still worry its something sinister
