Achy leg

I am 12 days post op (full hysterectomy, omentum, lymphs) and am having issues with pain/ ache in my right leg. It's really driving me nuts Especially at night! Is this just all part of my journey or should I be alarmed. ( I'm still wearing my super sexy surgical stockings and daily injection for dvt)

Hi, I would get your leg checked asap. It could still be a DVT and although we hope not, its best to get confirmation. If the pain is in the back of your calf that's a red flag. Not wanting to alarm you, just better to be safe than sorry as they say. Let us know

I still have aches in my legs, I'm 7 months post surgery. I beleive it's the bevazubamab as this is one of the side effects

If you have had surgery, there is bound to be some aches, I suggest you speak to your gp asap and if your leg is swollen, red or tender go to emergency dept

Chezp, get your leg checked out immediately. You could have a blood clot, which is serious.
