I look my best blurry!

I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.
Poor baby
Went to the ER with one because the walk in clinic DR said they had the equipment to rule out a blood clot. Wife and the interwebs made me believe it was a blood clot.
Mine was painful. Believe mine was aggravated by my calf sleeves. Same sypmtoms on another occassion but less severe swelling and pain. Couple days off running and it was a non-issue. I'll try again this morning
No big deal or something to monitor? Though I'd imagine it would depend upon if it was fiberous? or fluid filled.

Where is it? How long has it been there? Strange that it does not hurt...
I have a cyst confirmed as 'large and complex' based on the MRI. Honestly, it doesn't hurt. I get what I call a 'funny feeling' (tightness? pressure? I'm never sure how to describe it) in my knee that I suspect is the cyst. The only time I have pain is when I have significant swelling of the knee, which seems to happen about once a year or so due to arthritis in the joint (which I suppose is the underlying reason for the cyst as well). But neither the cyst nor the arthritis cause any direct pain.
