I can honestly say I don't know if I have or haven't. Probably doesn't help in the poll.

Yes, I did once because I was taking K2 and vitamin d. Once I stopped, I my platelets didn't clot anymore. My doctor said k2 was not the cause, but they haven't clumped since I stopped and that was over a year ago. My doctor does a cbc every three months. They have been taking my blood for over four years with no clumping. I tried k2 and vitamin d regularly for 3 months then take test with clumping sounds like a no brainer for me. limit you k2.
