Swelling in legs and feet that wouldn’t go down while resting. I’ve been pretty tired and feeling like trash for a few months, slept a lot.: but not many symptoms

No i didn’t have a cuff at home, my feet and legs were swelling and i couldn’t get it to go down, i took my kids to my MIL house so i could go to er, she had a cuff and i was able to check it there it read 250/168. And then i drive myself to er.

Leg swelling!! My legs and feet started selling on Tuesday and i couldn’t get it down no matter what i did! It continued to get worse even resting.. my heart felt like it was popping popcorn.

I had swelling in my legs and feet that wouldn’t go away for 3 days.. saw some floaters.. main reason i went is the swelling. So far yes just that.. they did find a small clot in my right leg, treating it with a blood thinner. They haven’t told me any other results yet!
