My Story
I was diagnosed with DVT in my calf and bilateral PE in 2015 as a healthy, very active 23 year old. I had no risk factors aside from being on estrogen birth control but had been for 5 years already with no issues, so my clot was deemed ‘unprovoked’. I was on anticoagulants for 6 months, during which time my clots dissolved. Since being taken off Xarelto, I have been to the ER several times for fear of another clot but so far so good. Experiencing blood clots taught me to seize every day and appreciate what and who I have around me, you never know what life is going to throw your way.
Description
The National Blood Clot Alliance (NCBA) is gearing up for Blood Clot Awareness Month this year in a BIG way! In honor of the 100,000 lives lost each year to blood clots, NBCA is setting out to RIDE 100,000 miles, RAISE $100,000 and REACH 100,000 people.
I'm teaming up with NBCA’s Team Stop the Clot® for a 31-day virtual ride challenge throughout the month of March to help raise these critical funds to support NBCA’s programs and services.
NBCA's mission means a lot to me personally. Your donation of any amount will help support National Blood Clot Alliance’s vision of creating a future in which fewer lives are lost to preventable blood clots.
