Checkup for blackouts

I recently went to a and e for blackouts. I was seen by a female doctor who checked me out. She felt my stomach and abdomen area which at first felt normal. Then she started feeling my lower legs. Should I be worried about this? Was this normal?
Checking for leg swelling is part of a cardiovascular examination so totally normal when assessing someone who has had a blackout.

Is it weird that I'm thinking about this girl? As in just because she got me to open up about certain things I think I fancy her?

It’s not weird to fancy someone but I think most people would find it less common to crush on them after a brief appointment.

Just certain things she did during the appointment that made me think is she trying to get me to open up? Is she interested? Shall I take a chance and ask her? Even when we finished just her behavior suggested it. Idk maybe due to my mental state I'm overthink and overanalysing.

You’re overthinking it.

Definitely overthinking it.

So is it normal for me to want to get to know her better? Meaning do I have an attachment problem?

Is it bad that I wanted to ask this girl for her number etc? Would it have been shallow of me?

Yes, it's ridiculous that you want to ask her out after an encounter that likely lasted 10-15 minutes. She is not going to date you, get over it.
