Back in February I noticed that my right foot was swollen for no reason. It has since started to turn a pinkish/purple. I have seen my doctor and have also seen an orthopedic. I have had numerous tests including 2 ultrasounds for a DVT. The second one went from my groin to my ankle. When the tech got behind my knee my leg started to feel like it was falling asleep. Is this normal? I have also recently developed a cough that I cannot get rid of. I thought it was my asthma so I did not tell my Dr. What can this possibly be?

So........ I went to the ER on Saturday and they took some chest x-rays. They were clear. They said it may be my allergies and gave me some allergy meds. Problem is.... cant keep em down. Everytime I go in a coughing fit I vomit. Going to see my PCP tomorrow. Fingers crossed
