"My husband's suspected DVT"

We had just started our holiday and were staying with friends near Grantham when my husband's right calf suddenly swelled up. He'd hurt his knee a week earlier but we thought it was getting better after resting it. As a nurse, I knew that a suddenly swollen calf after a period of inactivity is worrying, so off we went to Grantham A& E...who were wonderful. We were seen quickly, by friendly and efficient staff, a plan was made - this was Saturday and by Monday we had an ultrasound appointment which thankfully ruled out DVT. We had to return on Sunday as we'd had trouble getting the prescription for blood thinners dispensed and once again the staff were extremely helpful and sorted it all out, fortunately we didn't need them after the scan on Monday anyway. From the moment we arrived on Saturday to the moment we left on Monday, enormously relieved that it wasn't a DVT, the care we had was exceptional.
