hi all been having some left leg pains mostly calf the last week but in different spots that comes and goes no swelling i’m worried about a dvt im 25 weeks pregnant i have not injured my foot as i’ve been resting alot due to pregnancy complications earlier on.

ive been up the a n e. they said d dimer is worthless in pregnancy but they were able to do a quick ultra sound on leg no clots seen but reading through forums they can be missed aspecialy as this was a quick ultrasound it took 5 mins i heard if your referred for a proper ultrasound of the leg it takes a long time
whay can i do now or request i really want to duke this out as i know its dangerouse thankyou.

Reading on forums, rather than believing the fully qualified medical staff that examined you, and performed an ultrasound, will lead you to anxiety.

If it comes and goes, you have no redness or swelling, nothing seen on US and you are generally feeling well, then it is unlikely to be DVT.

If you are doing lots of resting and little moving I would maybe consider some support tights to improve venus return, and discuss your concerns about this with your midwife.
