Hi bab

If I remember rightly, when I first started taking the pill it made me sleep really well at first (which was a nice change! :D).

I think the thing to remember about the DVT issue is that they're very rare - only 1 in many thousands of users will get one as a direct result of the pill. Which means that you're got considerably more chance of winning £10 on the lottery the next time you do it!

and those that do suffer a DVT have a family history they weren't aware of or a blood clotting disorder.

I am on the pill, I have the same fear you have, but the longer im on the pill the less I worry about it.
