The most important question is now that you get an APS-doctor. I have read that you have done the bloodsamples. Even if you do not have positive bloodtests you may well have APS.

The symptoms you described a month ago I recognize as APS-symptoms. I had those and I have APS and have to have my blood thinned because of too thick blood as we all have when we have APS. We must thin the blood (Fragmin, warfarin or something else) to feel OK again.

Please come back to us when you have seen your heamatologist on December 10th! I want to know what the doctor said and if you had positive antibodies on the bloodsamples.

Take care till then......

Have you been diagnosed with APLS? And if so, are you taking any medication for it?
