Ten days ago after a 3 hour car journey, my right calf was very swollen and painful. My GP did a blood test which came back positive for DVT. However an ultra sound scan was negative. Has anyone experienced this problem? Could it be a burst Baker's cyst? It is now 10 days after the initial swelling and I still have a painful swollen calf and swollen right ankle.

Hi Mabon 12
I have had a swollen and painful left knee and ankle since diagnosis 18 months ago, however, recently my left calf has become noticeably larger than my right and is quite tender. I saw my Rheumy 2 weeks ago and he ruled out a DVT as he said it would be much more painful. He also mentioned a Bakers Cyst, but I haven't had any noticeable swelling behind the knee. Therefore he remains mystified and so do I !
