Hey there, everyone. I'm wondering if anyone has a perspective on this: After a DVT/PE in 2008 from (doctors claim) was the soleal vein in my right leg (long plane ride, no genetic factors), I was on wafarin for about a year. Since, then, I've been careful and clear. For the first few years after the clots, I would have leg pain in the same location, head to the hospital and then get cleared. My assumption was that this was phlebitis and each episode was short and dissipated quickly. There was no chest or back pain with the leg pain. I just figured that the extra vigilance was the price I paid for being lucky, like many of us here. That said, I've noticed some leg pain again recently for a few hours, followed by what seems like a chill that runs through my body, then diminished leg pain and then nothing by morning. While I accept that this may be anxiety, I'm wondering if it's possible that I'm getting very small clots that are to small to cause much damage and dislodged quickly. Is this even possible?

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
CC
