Hi, I was just reading your post and a thought came to mind. I don't want to scare you but just take this into consideration.
I have friend here that had an ectopic pregnancy. She had it removed through laparoscopy. within a week, she started to get severe pain in her leg, and the swelling started to. Took her to the ER and they did an ultrasound on her leg. She had developed a blood clot from the incision site, all the way down her leg. She takes coumadin every day now. This is just a thought. If it continues to bother you Get to the ER and demand an ultrasound of you veins.
