[QUOTE="ziggy_w, post: 2284078, member: 323454"] Hi [USER=492004]@IronLioness[/USER], I'm with you on this. Right about the same time as you (end of May 2015), I also suffered from DVT and a pulmonary embolism. This was also the day I was diagosed with diabetes. Did you know that high insulin and high blood sugars contribute to clot formation? Here is an article on this [URL]https://professional.diabetes.org/abstract/effect-high-insulin-and-glucose-blood-coagulationthrombosis-healthy-people[/URL]. It says that if insulin levels are high and blood sugar levels are high, there is a ninefold increased risk of blood clot formation. So being in remission for the last two years, you are already doing everything to reduce your risk of this happening again. This having been said, I really get why you still worry. I can empathize with you have been through. It must have been horrific. [/QUOTE]
