Strange feeling of elastic bands around my legs.

[CountryGirl]

Was diagnosed around 34 years ago, and have been on warfarin since. My irn seems to be uncontrolled. Mostly around 3.5 - 4.6. Highest 7.7 and lowest 1.2. Right now it is 2.5 and I have this feeling once again of elastic bands just below my knee. All of the dvts have been in my right leg and when I have had this sensation before it was in the right leg, but today it is in the left. It is not painful just uncomfortable. Any clues?

Hello, this is a familiar feeling, although I have not had it for nearly 23 years, do go and get yourself checked, it may be nothing, but that tightness needs to be checked anyhow. Mary F

Country Girl, can you let us know what you find out. I used to get that sensation around my waist - always thought that kind of odd. Haven't had it in a long time. Don't know if that is because I have been on warfarin?
