Hi there.

I see that my colleague, Mary, gave you a very full answer and advice when you last posted about this. Have you looked at what she gave you the link to?

Have you asked your GP to do the tests for APS?

Read "Sticky Blood Explained" by Kay Thackray. A good book (she has APS herself) with a lot of symptoms from APS described.

If you think you have the APS-symptoms try to get an APS-Specialist in England. Perhaps your GP does not know what APS is about. An APS-Specialist knows exactly what to look for.

Please get your GP to do the tests I suggested for Hughes Syndrome, plus a full panel for thyroid, B12, iron and vitamin D. We can't help you any further, other than to suggest that you go in the right direction to rule it out or not, please make use of the information I sent you earlier, and best of luck. MaryF
