Still awaiting medication for SLE but am at the start of a flare. Blood test yesterday saw my INR drop to 1.7 (range 2.5 - 3). I was just wondering if these two facts were associated? Incidentally malar rash noticed by my neurologist yesterday, which was first time thats been noticed by a medic.

Hi,
My personal experience is that Lupus flare drop my INR, the APS flares always raise them. Diagnosis was 9 years ago, and although controlled well with medication for some years it's always done the same.
Take care,
Sue
I also have not passed the Lupus tests but I do notice INR drops with a flare. Flares tend to occur when my cycle is coming, when I am stressed and when It is very hot outside.
Just to elongate the tale a bit more....
I had two severe raynauds flares which triggered lupus flares. The lupus caused so much pain I couldnt move to take my warfain and lo and behold my INR dropped.
