calf swelling after fainting

After lifting weights in the morning, I recently felt nauseous and fainted. After I awoke, I noticed that my right calf was swollen. I'm not sure if I hit something when I fell; however I didn't notice any bruises. Could these events be related somehow?

You need to see a physician immediately and get a radioactive dye stress test.

Fainting is usually vasovagal. Nausea is a hallmark of a cardiac event. The juxtaposition of the two symptoms means you need to go to a hospital.

I can't comment about the thigh.

It may turn out you have a perfectly normal heart. Please don't be made at me for suggesting "general quarters". Modern emergency rooms and physicians are very good at reseaching potential cardiac events.

An M.D. can be your best friend. You need one.
