I work for a vascular surgeon - sounds like your problem might be vascular. Eventhough you had several ultrasounds - looking for a DVT - those will not evaluate your circulatory status. You may need a test called an Arterial Study, which is nothing more than placing blood pressure cuffs on your feet, ankles, calves and thighs.
