Can factorV patients have symptoms of HS? I have severe headaches, fogginess, aches, tingling in face,pain around eyes. What type of dr?

Morning I have factor five leidons and Hughes syndrome, I would ask your Gp and print off information of Hughes web site and ask if you could have a referral to haematologist if he thinks you may have it too, ? Perhaps blood test first

I agree with Daisy - I have come across many patients through the HSF charity who have both conditions. There is a really good website called Lifeblood which is run by Prof Beverley Hunt which might explain this: thrombosis-charity.org.uk/i...

I have both but thought the FVL just caused clotting and miscarriages and it was the APLS causing me all the grief ...could be wrong though. Sadly the FVL gets more credence from drs than APLS.
