10 days ago, i spent the morning in A+E and ended up with a diagnosis of phlebitis and a weeks course of Flucloxacillin. I'm 16+5 with PFB so no idea o what's normal!
Since then (6 days ago) I've seen my GP because the red patch got bigger. He prescribed Ibuprofen gel.
Since then, the pain has stayed pretty much the same but the whole lot has shifted down to my knee. I also have a cramp-like pain in my calf.
Do I:
A) See my GP again
B) Take myself off to A+E
C) Rest lots and bathe in ibuprofen gel
D) Get off my arse and move around?
I've tried googling, and all i can find is horror stories of people dying of DVT related stuff. The advice appears to be conflicting about moving vs resting and elevating, and nothing is relevant to pregnancy!
I also have a very nasty cough, although no other cold/flu type symptoms
Please help me stay calm
