Hi, You do not tell us if you have APS. Who has diagnosed you and where are you from?

If you have APS I would like to know your therapeutic range please.

Best wishes from Kerstin in Stockholm

Hi, do you have a diagnosis of APS/Hughes Syndrome? Re Warfarin, each person has their specific target and your diet and keeping it steady is crucial. MaryF
