ok will keep this short as dont want to go on too much. I had like a annoying throbbing pain in my calf back of knee area tuesday night. It then stopped on weds and then came back last night and has been there all day today.

I googled it and it came up for DVT , i suffer with sever anxiety so that hasnt helped at all. I should of known better than to google it but im totally freaking out now. The area is really sensitive when i touch it aswell.

The doctors is closed now till monday and due to my anxiety i dont know if im being a drama queen or generally right to have major concern.

Would it be ok till monday or should i go to hospital if its not feeling any better tomorrow.
