I have had two different test for Factor V. The first came out negative. ( saying I didn't have it) The second and most recent saying that I do have it. Now currently on warfarin trying to keep from getting more clots. But for some reason no matter what I take I still end up with a clot. Have been to several Dr and specialist.

@ageter, these are some of the treatments that are listed on Mayo Clinic's page here: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/factor-v-leiden/diagnosis-treatment/drc-20372428

Have compression socks been suggested for you? Or leg wraps that inflate and deflate to keep blood moving in your legs? Are you able to stay active?
