Wow Sarah, your experience is a lesson for all of us. I have always worried about DVT when flying - especially long flights, and I have always taken aspirin before a flight as I tend to get excessive edema in my legs. But I was never aware of the DVT risk associated with athletics. If anything, I always assumed exercise would help reduce the risk of DVT. I am glad you are feeling better and were diagnosed in time. If there is any good to come out of all of this, it is the lessons we all have learned. Thank you for sharing and take good care of yourself. Your bike will always be there.
