First Appointment with haematologist tomorrow.. what can I expect?

[LeanneLouise15]

Hi guys,

Tomorrow I have my first ever haematologist appointment tomorrow that I have been waiting for for ages. This will be the first step since finding out under my gynecologist that I'm lupus anticoagulant positive.

What can I expect from this appointment? Is there anything I should prepare for?

Thanks in advance xx

I hope he is a Specialist of APS first of all. Then he knows what to look for re symptoms. You are already diagnosed. You like I am positive Lupus Anticoagulant. You are already on anticoagulation I guess. This is the main thing with this illness that we are properly and stable anticoagulated to feel ok again. A Hematologist is the right person to ask about this as he/she is a Specialist of blood and this is also a blood-disorder.

Write down your questions and ask for copies of bloodresults if there is any or take your own copies with you to show him.

Good Luck from Kerstin in Stockholm
