    Did you also get tested for other thrombophilia? Factor V Lieden is often found with other conditions.

    I have MTHFR also one of the thrombophilia blood clotting disorders, only discovered after 5 transfers. I take low dose aspirin daily and also Clexane injections when cycling and pregnant. I think finding this out made all the difference for me. Good luck x

    I also have MTHfR. I take activated folate and low dose aspirin daily.

    hmmm thanks for the info and encouragment girls :-) xxxooo,
    i am not sure if i have been tested for any thrombophilia or MTHfR i have had so many tests i will ask my dr.
    i have started taking my asprin and will start clexane after positive test.. now im worried i should start clexane before?

    I order it from the USA but Thorne make a version you can buy in Oz. Factor V Lieden is a form of thrombophilia. Often one goes with another. The reason I take activated folate is because with MTHFR I don't absorb folic acid, when can cause all sorts of problems.
