You just had a triumph here.  You waited until you got more information.   I had to go to the ER a couple of weeks ago after feeling a pop in my ankle while jogging.  I had to go in case I did damage - the pop wasn't something I ever dealt with. Three X-rays later, I found out it was just a sprain....but....sometime in the past, I HAD broken a bone in my ankle, and I didn't know it!

Morning update: Still painful but I'm not sure if it's DVT.  Again, it's not swollen, red, or debilitating to walk on, but the calf almost feels bruised and while it's warm, it's not any warmer than my other leg.  I'm thinking it might just be a muscle strain, but the main caveat is my other leg feels fine, just my left calf is hurting. 

Backstory: Today I noticed some soreness in my left calf, not the right. At first I wrote it off as a muscle strain as I had done some heavy work in my carport a couple of days prior, but a couple of things worry me: The location of the pain is in a part of my calf and I could see a blue vein that's not as noticeable on my right.  It doesn't appear swollen or red nor is it unbearably painful to walk with, but the anxious part of my mind thinks I got a clot about to work its way to my heart and kill me. FWIW I have high blood pressure so IDK if that plays a part or not.  Anyone with experience want to talk me down from spiraling

Thanks. Yeah of course I jump to the worst case scenario on this stuff. Basically,the calcium score will tell me if I should be on a statin or not.
