I wonder if the medical view of DVT has changed. I picked up a DVT after breaking my ankle and not being able to put any weight on that foot for 6 weeks. Have been prescribed anti-coagulant pills for 3 months and the medics do not want to see me after that period as they consider it will be sorted.

No, but yours was clearly post traumatic.  It was a direct consequence of an injury and the treatment thereof.  Dobby's was not.  It arose spontaneously and so there is no way of knowing whether it will happen again.  If a reason can be found then great, that can be addressed.  If not then it becomes a long term issue.

Well Dobby did have ankle (I think) surgery last autumn. So it may not be that spontaneous. Am I just clutching at straws here?

I hope that's connected. But it seems a long time ago. Maybe he took a knock on the leg in training and it is related to that?
