Artery: You are describing arterial blockage, not a dvt.

Not right test: This sounds more like arterial blockage. A DVT is venous and is detected differently. It sounds more like you are not getting good blood flow to your legs, feet, toes which is arterial disease not venous disease. Hope that helps.

Not: Dvt but could have artery blockage. Consult with vascular surgeon or cardiologist.

Leg pain: the tests you had are evaluating your arterial circulation indicating PAD nothing to due with dvt
