I'd see a good hematologist. Some people have inherited coagulation factors (?) like Protein S Deficiency or Factor V Leiden, and a whole host of other factors that make them hypercoagulable. You don't know until there is some kind of injury that promotes thrombus formation. Then it gets worked up. I'd see if there is a hematologist at a major medical center that deals with these unusual clotting disorders.

I have a personal question for the venous specialists out there. My 24 year old son has a clot in his Right leg from the iliac vein to his ankle and in the L leg from above the knee to the ankle. We have no idea of the cause—Any ideas?? Also how is the rest of the country treating this problem? Any help would be appreciated. RaKay
