                        Karin,  I have had trouble also with leg clots and clots in the lungs since 1992, so far, all together, I have had 15 clots in the past eight years.  All with lots of complications and now I am on disability.  Do NOT believe your doctor, get a Hematologist.  That is what I have now and he is on the ball.  On long trips get up and walk around every 1/2 hour for about 10-15 minutes.  You have to be very careful when you have a clot.  They can stick around, get a doppler done on your leg, insist on it.  Then you will know if you still have one or not.  If you want more info you can contact me at yvetteanderegg28@aol.com, anyone else reading this also can contact me.  I have been to hell and have not left all because of these clots.  The worst thing about it is that no one, not even Mayo, knows why I get them, every test they do comes back negative.  I live in Wisconsin so I go to Madison on a regular basis to treat this.  Hope this helps. Yvette
