23 weeks pregnant:

Started two nights ago with really bad calf/lower leg/ankle/knee pain radiating into my thigh, was still there by morning and was struggling to walk. Was referred to hospital AMU. Blood tests shown negative but doctor said this is common during pregnancy and the results aren’t read the same as if I wasn’t.

Was given blood thinning injections and Told to come back for an US on the 22nd. Slight swelling on calf but ankle is quite swollen. My lower leg feels so heavy and achy. Some numbness and tingling too. It hurts quite a lot and am hobbling around. Any experience? Did anyone else have these symptoms with a DVT. Really worried :/

Doctor felt my calf and said it feels a lot harder than the other! The pain is in my feet up to my ankle.
