Got home from ER about half an hour ago (after 1 a.m.). My right leg is 3 times the size of my left one, and the more I walk on it, the more it hurts. I had planned to just stick it out till my Friday appt. at the thrombo clinic, but got talked out of that.

Well, they didn't find a clot, but neither do they have an explanation for the pain and swelling. I could have saved the taxpayers of MN a helluva lot of $$ by just staying off it and keeping it elevated, which is the sum total of the advice I got for my 6 hours of time.

If anyone has had any experience with idiopathic leg swelling and pain, please gimme a holla. In the meantime, I'm going to bed.
