going to hospital, has anyone every had this?

Hi ladies,

Well i've been having some problems with my legs over the last couple of weeks, they have been aching all the time and kept getting pins and needles in my left foot, then on Tuesday my knee began to burn then come up with a bruise.
Well to be honest i wasnt overly worried so just left it. I was on the phone to my mum today and told her to which she started panicing telling me to ring nhs direct asap. Well i rang them and they have told me to go to hospital asap, as it shoulds like thrombosis (blood clot) I'm now waiting for my oh to get home from work and really panicing and feel so stupid for not doing something about it sooner. Apparently its alot more common in heavily pregnant women (im 32 weeks) has anyone ever had it?
