Hello, I have a question for you. I am a 34-year-old woman suffering from cold, terrible headaches, but that's not all, I find it hard to breathe at night, my heart beats not evenly when my blood pressure drops (currently I have 75/45). I have back surgery and I have problems with my leg. Maybe it's weird but yes. My calf swells, turns blue and hurts at the same time. I was at the surgeon where he ordered me to do an ultrasound of the veins (I have already done it 5 times and each elsewhere) and I was taking Clexan 40 mg injections. Surgeons do not know what it is. Some say phlebitis, others say no. I broke down. I went to the doctor, I promised myself the last time and he said it was bad circulation. I want to see a cardiologist. Do you think that it can be something from the heart and from bad circulation such symptoms? Please help.

I don't think the symptoms are caused by heart disease. Low pressure does not cause swelling and soreness in the legs. I think you should consult a vascular surgeon and rule out pulmonary embolism.
