Question: I have been to 3 doctors now because I have been worried about a blood clot in my right leg for about 6 weeks. I have mild sharp, almost itchy pain in my calf, kind of hot feeling inside my knee but does not feel hot to the touch, should note my knees pop and crack with some exercises, and wierd pulses throughout my body that feels like worms crawling through my veins or thick blood. Also shortness of breath and hoarse dry coughs that are nonproductive. There is no swelling or pain with walking. I have gone to 3 docs now, none of who directly checked my leg, and they all say my labs ,except ddt, were perfect and they all thought anxiety disorder...but to me that does not explain these symptoms. I do sit a lot during the day so I thought blood clot. Why else could i have these symptoms for over 6 weeks and nothing helps them?
