My daughter was diagnosed with APS (I have it too). She has had migraines, dizziness, etc., and none of the medicines traditionally used has helped. What medicines are usually prescribed for children with APS? It seems like the APS could be the source of her problems.

Hi, my daughter was diagnosed with APS at age 14. She also has Hashimoto's thyroid. Seattle children's hospital has her on 81mg aspirin, Plaquinal, and levathyroxine. The aspirin helps her. I wad diagnosed at age 47 with APS. And SLE at age 19 years old.

Hey there. Sorry to hear about your kids. I have APS and wondered if I should get my kids checked for the antibodies. Did they have an event or did you just have them checked?
