Hello, I was diagnosed with DTV last Halloween. Starting on Halloween, I was put on coumadin for 3 months. Now, I am exercising regularly, and no longer in therapy. My health is pretty much back to normal, although I do have to be extra careful when I fly, when I sit down for long periods of time, or when I take long car trips. I was told by my doctor that I must drink lots of water before and during these times and that I should wear compression stockings. Other than that, I have been able to resume living my life just the way it was prior to my diagnosis.

Have you or someone you know been diagnosed with DVT? How are you/they doing?

I'd like to know how long it has been since all of you were diagnosed and treated for a DVT and where you are now in terms of health, exercise, and therapy. Thanks.
