On blood thinners, woke up this morning with a charley horse in my right inner thigh, now swelling in leg and still feeling like a charley horse, could it be a blood clot? and my i.n.r. has been low for 8 days 1.8 mechanical mitral valve?

: Glad you are being careful, as this should be checked out ASAP. A simple ultrasound test should suffice, so get a venous NIVA today.
