A member asked:
A few months ago had sob and chest pain. high d dimer, negative chest ct. now calf pain could still be a blood clot? why else high d dimer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Need to evaluate: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without taking additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. It would be prudent to see a hematologist and get evaluated for thrombophilia. Elevated D-dimer per se is not of concern, but your prior history suggestive of venous thrombosis, makes it more serious.
