At the beginning of last week let’s say about Tuesday I noticed I had a sore ankle. It felt almost like I rolled my ankle but I had no recollection of doing that!  Fast forward to Friday, I take a trip to Vegas.  (About a 7 hour travel day) My ankle still hurts but not horrible!  Arrive in Vegas and go to sleep in hotel after a few hours of walking around.  I woke up with a horrible pain in my calf.  I remember in my foggy sleepy state thinking it didn’t quite feel like a charley horse but had to be I guess? I jumped up massaged out and eventually went back to bed.  I don’t recall having any pain following but we walked 15k steps and more so I probably was too hot and tired to even notice.  I can’t tell you the exact day I noticed but my calf is extremely sore and has been for a few days/maybe since possible charley horse. No swelling, bruising or high temps. I am a hypochondriac and blood clots are one of my biggest fears! I now feel like I am having pains all over my chest and legs and arms however I think it’s just life pains and just my brain tricking myself.  My calf is definitely sore and will occasionally twinge.  The Charley horse like thing is the only thing I can maybe point to for causes sore muscle but would that typically last a week? I am laying in bed at 3 am awake riddled with fear I’ll go to sleep and die. I have been crying in my bed trying not to wake my husband.  I do not want to seek medical attention for fear of looking crazy for having a simple muscle cramp.  Idk what I’m asking really maybe personal experiences or how to tell when it’s just a muscle thing or something more serious?
