Open Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)

I had a dvt 7 years ago. Ever since i ahve had a lot of problems with the same leg. I have a factor 5 leiden deficiency,,,so through each of my pregnancies ive had to inject myself with heparin the whole way through. Scared the shit out of me at first,,,but am so used to usin needles now,,it wouldnt bother me. In the past 4 months ive been twice to hospital for suspected dvt in the same leg,,,you can never be too safe hay!!
