hi
i have realised that i have health anxiety and am really scared that i have a blood clot in my leg
i was in the car driving last thursday for 6 hours but i did stop every hour and a half and strech my legs. at one point my right foot went numb and i had to wiggle it loads to get feeling back in it. I then had to go in the car for another 3 hours later on that evening (3hours later).
The next day my legs were really aching especially my left calf. by saturday i was well freaked out and went to A and E i only saw a nurse and she said i was fine. then we drove back home sunday night another 3 hours and i moved my legs the whole way but i now have a bit of swelling behind my left knee and im scarred ive got dvt. I was really short of breath earlier (mon) but i was stressing loads so could be cause of that.
I work in an office where im sat down all the time too. Im 20 years old
I dont know what to do. I dont want to go to A and E again and im so scared im going to have a pe and die. Any help....?
xx laura
