Need sonogram veins.: You should have a venous ultrasound to look for dvt. Pregnancy and sedentary life style puts you at increased risk for dvt. Your symptoms are vague but you should rule out a DVT and the best test for this is a venous ultrasound. There is no risk to the developing fetus from this test and it gives a lot of useful information.
