    FVL and leg pain
    I am 27 yrs and have Factor V Leiden's and have been experiencing severe leg pain in both legs but more severe in right leg. Does anyone know if this is a normal problem with FVL. The doctors just can't figure out what is wrong. They have me on coumadin for the FVL and neurontin and lortab for the leg pain it helps but still in pain Please help if anyone has any ideas or has FVL and has this problem:(

    Please ask your doctors if they have considered DVT (deep vein thrombosis) as I understand it is common with FVL.
