what's with my leg...?

[lljkk]

Almost 12 months ago I started to get occasional cramps in right leg, maybe in the back of the knee. I suppose if it was DVT then it should have killed me by now. I stopped wearing skinny jeans, but still I get a cramp in that same area sometimes. Not red or tender anywhere, noticeable rather than crippling. Can't think of any linked activities. What could be the cause?

Don't worry, if I die from mystery-leg-disease I will come back to haunt you all.... PPHHHHHAAAHAHAHAHHAhahahahaahha... !

Back of your knee, could be a bakers cyst, a varicose vein? Anything to see or feel??

ooh... ta 4 reply.
Nothing to see or feel. It's just a persistent slight cramp in non-precise location, iyswim.

How strange, could be any number of things, or just plain old cramp!

Possibly sciatica? Appreciate this isn't helpful, as if you google it you will find there is bugger all you can do about it :(

lljkk, remember what happened to me...??

Just go and get it checked out and your GO can run a simple blood test for DVT. Especially if it happens after being sat in front of a computer MNing for hours on end, or being otherwise immobile.

How do you feel otherwise?

GP offs not GO.

I type GP enough times; you'd think fucking autocorrect would have caught on by now.

Low in minerals, such as magnesium, potassium, calcium or iodine, maybe?

I went to my GP with a hot painful swelling behind the knee wondering if it was a DVT. He went through a list of what a DVT symptoms are and as I failed on the "red" he said it was not a DVT.
I was left a bit but in my book it said Phlebitis which I felt was right

It did eventually go away and that was years ago and I am still here

It's not hot, and the GP nags me about screening tests if I go would rather poke pins in my eyeballs.

But I will try to pay attention to whether it's worse after sitting down. I was sat down most of today & it's no worse for that, iyswim.

Thanks for replies, long day at work & then long delay on train home!!
