Has anybody here ever suffered from Cerebral Deep Vein Thrombosis with a possible link to the contraceptive pill? Or am I alone? (awww)

I am not able to take the contraceptive pill as this is a problem that runs in my family. Both my mother and grandmother have had pulmonary embolisms, which were caused by deep vein thrombosis. the pill i said to thicken your blood and therefore increases the chance of you getting DVT.
