A member asked:

Theres a study my girl heard about where you're paid for laying in bed 70 days. can this cause blood clots? or is a 25 year old probably safe?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sounds scary...: Think of the things that might happen other than blood clots (which are not likely, unless a person has an underlying condition, known or unknown, that raises the chance of clots). Staying in bed will mean bone loss, muscle loss, blood pressure regulation problems, heart rate problems, all sorts of scary things... It would have to be a big payment, to cover the risks and physical rehab afterwards.
