I've had this dull ache in my leg for 7 days now, situated at the back of my leg near my ankle.

It's not really painful, and its much more noticible when I'm sitting or standing still. When I'm walking around it doesn't hurt, or it's only very very slight.

I've been on The Pill for about two weeks now, and I know that gives you an increased chance of developing DVT.

My parent's don't know I'm on The Pill, so I can't exactly ask them to pay for an MRI for me...

What are the chances of this acctually being DVT? Anyone had a similar case? Did it clear up by itself?

Just to add - there is no swelling or discolouration, or tempurature difference to my other leg.
