People can work and play with FVL in any field. Any field where you might cut yourself you probably want to be very careful.

People with Factor V Leiden can do all kinds of work. If taking blood thinners, you will want to be careful and avoid injury. Naturally some fields of work are more prone to injury than others. But one with Factor V Leiden can live a fairly normal life.

Personally I think as long as you are smart about preventing issues that could occur you should be able to work in the majority of fields. However I wouldn't recommend anything that involves sitting for extended periods of time.

Yes you can work depending on the severity of your condition. If you have blood clots you need to work at a job that allows you to move during the day. Sitting still for too long is not good if you have blood clots.

Yes those with fvl can work. If at a sitting job, they need to make sure they are up walking to keep blood flow going.
