Last February I developed a DVT blood clot in my thigh, that spread to my lungs for a pulmonary embolism. I was on Xarelto blood thinners for three months, and now a low dose aspirin every two days (not every day or I would get nose bleeds). I am fine now, and back doing my regular sports. I was quite sick for a few weeks there and couldn't walk, and really dodged the bullet. I'm happy to share my experience here or by PM if you have questions.
We think it was caused by an injury to my leg from skiing or hockey, followed by a long flight to Europe.
