I have factor leiden v and im worried about the impacts it will have on my life my dad died of a blood clot when he was 38?

Take your med: Your dad was probably undiagnosed, or inadequately tested. Take the anti- coagulant you are prescribed, keep your medical appointments and you will probably be fine. Most people probably never know about this diagnosis.
