Is d dimer that is .04 above the normal cut off something to be concerned about? had the test done because of pain in my left calf. repeat test normal

Do not worry: A positive D-dimer is not very useful. A negative result is more useful for ruling out blood clot. For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex.
