Cold tingling in legs after recent GA

I had a Hysteroscopy on Monday under general anaesthetic. Wore compression socks until Thursday morning, as advised.

Very little symptoms from procedure itself, more just the GA has kicked my arse a little. Nausea, dizziness, headache & loss of appetite. All quite normal, I think.

Except I keep getting cold flashes in my legs, mostly in my lower legs. The only way I can describe it is like it's cold tingling that lasts for split seconds, in multiple locations but deep within the flesh. My skin is not cold and it happens even when legs are well wrapped/under duvet etc

It's a bit like that cold feeling you get when you first feel the liquid hit your vein, (if you've ever had an iv) but only momentarily, in flashes. I have had minor aches in my legs and in the arm they put the cannula in (the whole arm has been aching, not just the cannula site)

I've googled and it's not listed as a symptom of DVT so I'm unsure what to do.
