Doctors, doctors, doctors and a diagnosis!

Hurray, a diagnosis. I have Factor V Leiden heterozygous. I spoke with a perionatologist who suggested I call my old OB/GYN for a referral to a hematologist.

What does this all mean? I'm not sure. Will I have to wear special socks? Have a less sedentary job? Get injections before I fly? Take asprin the rest of my life? I really don't know. I'm glad I know about this condition so hopefully I can prevent anything bad from happening with my pregnancy.

Don't like the looks of that, but I agree that having a diagnosis is better than not knowing and having the imagination run wild. I'm also thankful that you're going into week 30!
