What Causes Back Pain During Deep Vein Thrombosis?
I'm 48 and recently suffered a DVT in my right leg. I've been on Warfarin and an antidepressant for two months. I also have intermittent claudication in the affected leg, For the past two weeks I've had a flutterly feeling in my upper right back (resting) usually accompanied by a feeling of a racing heartbeat. I don't know what could be causing this. I recently had a heart sonogram and was told that it came back normal. I have normal blood pressure, but my mother had chronic heart disease and die of a massive bleed in her brain. Do you know what could be causing the feeling in my back?
