Increased blood clot risk?

Well, this is no good.  I stumbled on it while doing research for a completely unrelated case.  I saw this big listing of mass torts on NJ’s website and, boom, there it was. 

I’m on NuvaRing.  It’s been great. 

Except now I have to wonder if I am putting myself at great risk for big health problems if I stay on it.  If normal, healthy, non-smoking women are having these issues (and I’m assuming that demographic), then I would have to imagine that my vascular malformations put me at even more increased risk.  But how do I find out?  It’s hard enough finding a regular doc that knows the implications of KTS; what about finding a gyno that does??

Guess I’ll be investigating an IUD or something.  Been thinking about it, anyway, as the NuvaRing is $60 a month – and that’s WITH insurance.
