I'm scared I might have a DVT/PE

[TBlount14]

I'm 15 years old

I have this achy pain or tightness feeling in my calf and behind the knee. I know symptoms of DVT/PE from prior knowledge from Anatomy class at school. I have no family history of clotting disorders. I do suffer from anxiety disorder, which has been made worse with my grandmothers diagnosis with pancreatic cancer. There is no swelling as I can tell as well as no warmth maybe only because I wear certain clothing that may contribute to that. I have been known to worry a lot and I try to calm down but just can't! I just need to be reassured that this is just my mind playing tricks on me. My uncle who is a registered nurse, says it's nothing just a pulled muscle or soreness from a Charley Horse. I did trust him and didn't think about it then it just came back

This has been going on for 2 days now. The tight achy feeling in calf up to knee and hamstring.

Only a doctor can diagnose you -- we can't.  It's pretty unlikely at your age, though, and the worrying of a 15 year old isn't necessarily going to translate to an adult anxiety disorder -- there could be something in your life that has made you insecure.  Might do you good to see if this is the case.

The death of my grandfather had started this nonsense. I have been given anxiety pills for this i do take them. Its just that it  my mind cant comprehend that this worrying is false. I was doing well with my anxiety and then came my grandmother's cancer diagnosis which is only making me go back to square one again.

Okay, first, you're pretty young to be taking pills, especially if you know the trigger.  You should be seeing a therapist instead so you can work out the way you're thinking.  Second, grief has to play itself out -- it's not an illness and you can't treat it by suppressing it with pills.  You gotta let it out and let it take the time it needs to play itself out.  Third, outside events don't cause anxiety, the way we think about them does.  Everyone will have tragedy in their lives, but not everyone will get anxiety problems because of it.  Which again suggests its time to see someone who can explain this to you in a way that you can internalize and move on.
