Yes, it is possible that it is a recurrence.
Is the pain similar to what you experienced before?
If you've already had it happen more than once, then it most likely means you are more prone to it, which is probably why they had you taking the Warfarin before.
Learn more Warfarin details here.
And did the doctor have you taper the Warfarin, or did you just stop taking it all at once?
If so, that may have caused the problem right there, because stopping it suddenly has the possibility of causing rebound effects that make your blood more prone to clotting.
