Hello,
I'm a 26 year old male with no previous health conditions that was admitted to the hospital 2 months ago with a DVT in my right arm. Upon a CT scan of my chest it was found there was also a few smaller clots there as well. (Doc notes below). So far all test from the Hematologist have come back negative (for any possible causes) and the doctor has basically just shrugged their shoulders and told me to continue with my Eliquis.
I'm posting to see if there are any other recommendations of tests or treatments, I should attempt to pursue to try to figure out what my issues are. I would prefer to not take blood thinners for the rest of my life and I can find what caused the blood clots that would at least be a step in the right direction.

DVT of right axillary vein, acute (HCC) - Primary
