It is not a DVT Bev. Are you still in hospital ? If so then ask them to reassure you.

My left ankle is swollen and bearing in mind I have had a heart attack they are not worried about it. No idea what causes it but if they aren't worried then I won't be.

I also get pains in my calves and the underside of my feet.

You will also get swollen ankles/feet if you are laying in a bed a lot of the time too.

I don't think you should come out on Friday until they give you some help with the HA Bev to be honest or you will just be back on here posting the same thing again and nothing will have been solved.

Hi Bev

I have to agree with Nicola .

You should no longer need to post about the calf , dvt etc..

They would not discharge you with a clean bill of health if there was anything wrong . You have to believe this and break the cycle of posting for reassurance ....the reassurance does not last long and then you (meaning all HA sufferes) post again , then worry , then re post , get anxious and the pain gets worse , so you post again , i,ve seen it all before and done it myself at the doc,s , you need to break this cycle or you will be trapped in it forever .
Please don,t take this the wrong way Bev , i,m only trying to help .

Take care and don,t be a stranger on here just post for a chat :D, stay well

Hi all thanks for your comments hopefully going home 2moz saw doc about ankle yesterday and they did say it was swollen they think maybe water retention. I feel i have moved on from a dvt as i dont think it would last 7 weeks in here there saying scatica i guess i have to trust them.
