Hi, I'm freaking out so I'll try to make sense. I woke up this morning with a stinging pain in the back of my left knee and I read that this might be a symptom of Deep Vein Thrombosis and it has scared me. I had blood tests done a month ago and they all came back clear. I don't sit too long, don't travel on planes and have no prior family history of clots if that helps.

    This is definitely a panic attack due to what you have read online that scared you and lead to anxiety which is expressing a lot of symptomps that are non sense when your health is perfectly fine but you do not feel like you're okay.
