Hi Trixxie
There's been a lot of threads like this where someone has another aliment and want to know if there's a connection. Generally those in the same position post that it's happened to them too, where those it hasn't happened to stay quiet.
As you've found out there is no established or even suspected link between the 2 diseases and no good reason to think there should be.
According to NHS choices:
Each year, 1 in every 1,000 people in the UK is affected by DVT.
Anyone can develop DVT, but it becomes more common with age. As well as age, risk factors include:
•previous venous thromboembolism
•a family history of blood clots
•medical conditions such as cancer and heart failure
•inactivity – for example, after an operation
•being overweight or obese
those are the recognised common causes although it can happen to anyone for no apparent reason, all you can really do is keep your weight down and keep moving.
