I am 27 and just recently found out that I have Factor V Leiden following many pulmonary emboli, DVT's, a stroke at birth, and 2 TIA's. Anyone else have this problem?

The elements that I listed above in this message string as causing my various blood clots can be tested for with various blood tests. The hereditary problem will always be there if you have it. The other items can drift in and out of whack so testing is not always conclusive. It may be a start for you though, your local GP can get you started.
My Internist was the one who discovered it. Now, I am followed by a hematologist and also a high risk OB/GYN. They are still baffled about all the events, but the main thing is as of right now, Coumadin seems to be doing the trick! Hope this helps!!!
A very close friend of mine (25 year old mother of 1) was just diagnosed with Anticardio Lipinzs Syndrome. I can't find much of anything on the web about this condition. does anyone have any suggested URLs or information. Thanks for any help possible.
