A 61-year-old woman chooses a physician as a primary care provider after reading his biography in the health maintenance organization literature. The physician discovers that she was recently admitted to the hospital for palpitations and found to have newly diagnosed atrial fibrillation (AF). She was placed on digoxin and verapamil for rate control and loaded with Coumadin for anticoagulation. After several trips to the anticoagulation clinic she decided to stop taking her Coumadin, as it was difficult for her to leave work during the day. She now calls the office complaining of a cold, pale, and painful right leg starting an hour ago. Which of the following is the most likely explanation for her symptoms?
A. Cerebrovascular accident (CVA)
B. Deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
C. Multiple sclerosis (MS)
D. Raynaud syndrome
E. Thromboembolism
