Hey everyone.
I've had an irrational fear of dvt for about a year after my friend's sister died very young from a pe. I've had leg pain in my left leg for most of this year and it was diagnosed as sciatica after demanding an ultrasound that came back negative. Now for the last month, there's a spot on the inner side of my calf that sometimes hurts when my legs rub together and feels like a bruise when pushed. I've also had ankle pain and both of my aknees have mild swelling. My first thought is obviously a clot, but I don't have any redness or leg swelling or hot to the touch. I'm just thinking I have a clot but don't know it because they don't always have all the symptoms. I don't have the best insurance so I don't want to pay a lot of money for tests at the doctor only for them to tell me it's nothing.
