Hi

I had unexpected Gallbladder removal surgery on 27.12.2017, about 3 weeks later I started to get a band like tightness in my left lower leg. There is no pain just a weird feeling like something is tight on my leg. I went to my GP and she referred me for a ultrasound for DVT, which came back negative.

It's been 2 weeks since the ultrasound and I still have the tightness feeling and now pain in my foot. I mentioned it again to my GP who wasn't concerned due to the ultrasound results.

Would you be ok and accept the results even though I still have the tightness and now pain in foot ?

I do get anxiety so I don't know if I am just over thinking it or if I should go to the ER.

Any advice would be good thank you smile

    I would think that you are fine.  How are you feeling now?
