Of particular interest is the DVT. Besides having MS, I also have some funky blood that is prone to clots, so I take blood thinners every day. I used to donate blood all the time until I was diagnosed with this. It's called Factor V Leiden http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factor_V_Leiden and the disease itself was only discovered in 1994. I did have a clot once about 10 years ago, but nothing since I've been on the blood thinners. As far as exercising outside when it's cold, I Love It! Once you get the blood flowing and warmed up, it is no big deal. I'd rather run in 25 degree weather than 85! Very interesting! Of particular interest is the DVT.
