Leg Pain

[Kallets 29]

I everyone. I have a tingly feeling in one leg. I called the doc and they told me to wait and see and if it got worse to go to the er. It's not worse but it's really uncomfortable. I had surgery on Wednesday, June 13. Anyone else ever have this?

I didn't have tingling in my leg but I did get groin pain and then my leg started swelling and turning red. I ended up with a couple blood clots. Just watch it carefully hopefully it's nothing. Not trying to scare you because yours could be something completely different.

I would just watch it VERY closely. If the feeling changes or gets worse definitely do something because blood clots can be life-threatening.

Yes, don't let it go too long. You have done the right thing in contacting the doc.

Thanks everyone. Just watching it now. I'm probably going to head to the doc tomorrow to be safe.

Me I would go to the emergency room RIGHT NOW!!! Then again I had a stroke from a blood clot when I was 39.

Ugh now I'm scared and can't sleep. The regrets of getting this are bothering me more and more.

Please don't regret having surgery. I am probably being alarmist but blood clots are not something to mess around with. I had a brutal headache for 2 days and never for a moment considered going to the hospital (over the weekend). Was'nt until day 3 when I woke up and my right arm was numb and my mouth was slanted that I knew something was desprately wrong.

It bothers me when surgeons brush off leg pain after surgery. Makes me wonder if they just don't want to go to the hospital to meet you.
