### Patient: Doctor, I have been experiencing some unusual symptoms lately. Tingling and numbness in my arms, and swelling in my legs. I also seem to have lost my ability to smell and taste things properly. What do you think is going on?
### Doctor: Based on your symptoms, it is possible that you have deep vein thrombosis (DVT). DVT is a blood clot that forms in a deep vein, usually in the legs, but can also occur in the arms. The clot can cause swelling and discomfort in the affected area, as well as paresthesia or numbness. The disturbance of smell or taste may not always be a symptom of DVT, however it is better to perform some diagnostic tests to confirm the disease.
