Concerned about DVT (deep vein thrombosis) for a few months now I have been having a feeling of like cramping/heavy odd pain in my left leg sometimes my right. But lately it has been literally from my hip buttcheek to shin. Mostly behind my leg. And itches too!! I’m worried about it getting worse cause I have mid back pain and sometimes between shoulder blades mostly left side. I don’t have any spiderveins or varicose veins that I can see. Sometimes the area feels warm but is it in my head(?). I have been dealing with chest pain mostly the left side too!! You look it up and tells you worse case scenario. My sister was like you need potassium but I just got a complete blood count my potassium and my sodium levers were Normal. I did wake up Easter morning with the worse Charlie horse I’ve ever had in left leg. Than 3 days ago a Charlie horse in my right. Help!! Does anyone else get these sensations. I didn’t do anything out of the norm. I don’t workout as much as I should but I don’t sit around all day either I used to but have been trying to make an effort to move. Help!! Ugh hate anxiety.

So now the pain and tenderness is my right calf shin. And chest pressure pain. They did a leg ultrasound on my left leg was ok. I know if you think about it can make things worse. I’m just sick of feeling this way!!! I’m thinking of doing therapy. They gave me attaral(?) for a panic attack. Just wish I could pray and boom it be gone and my mind be thinking normal the aches and pains sensations go away. I know that won’t happen. But these feelings feel so alone.

You had your test done. Leg is fine. At times many things can bring about such pains in the legs. Like if we do nothing for a long time and then we do something. That can make us hurt. even if you simply went on a walk. Because the legs are moving again. Using muscles we might not have used in a while. We can even sleep the wrong way and wake up with various pains. I would be trying to remember if you done anything different just before any of this came on? Something you don't normally do. Would be the most logical answer.
Thank you. Yea they did the ultrasound in my left leg not the right. But I’m sure you are right. My primary doctor was saying how tense I’ve been and that can cause pains and aches. Plus your right I haven’t been moving and walking as much as I normally do. My sister is right when you fixate on things it’s going to feel worse. My brains doesn’t accept logical answers lately. But thank you for your reply.
