Girlfriend has had charley horse feeling for 3-4 days

Posted , 1 user is following.

We are trying to figure out if the deep vein thrombosis is being caused by her meds. Right now, she's on abilify, Clonazapam for her anxiety, and Lamictin to control her bipolar 2 disorder. More recently, her OB put her on Percocet with Ibuprofen to help with her abdominal pain from endometriosis. Also, the OB prescribed Norco too. If it is what she has, why would it take 4 months for it to appear?

    A DVT in the leg is hot, swollen, and can become red.

    If you place your thumb on the shin bone and the fingers on the calf and squeeze hard, a DVT will elicite quite a response.
