I am 25 years old and in March 2021 I experienced the most scary three days of my life

I woke up on the Tuesday with extreme pain in my right leg almost felt like I had done a massive work out and pulled every muscle in my leg! The pain was worse in my calf just constantly throbbing!

I was working from home for over a year and had not done any extensive exercise.

I continued to work as normal and just hoped I would feel better the next day!

I was very wrong!

The next day was even worse I couldn’t even put any weight on my right leg the pain was something I’ve never experienced ever before! I called 111 line and they weren’t worried as I didn’t have the typical symptoms of a blood clot, such a red leg or swollen leg, so they told me just to rest up...

Day three I contacted them again and was in tears down the phone I knew something wasn’t right! I was then told to ring my GP but with COVID going on I was unable to get an appointment so the 111 line had to organise this for me!

Thank god I got in when I did!
