This is a site for those who are diagnosed with Hughes Syndrome/APS. Do you think you have got APS?

We have too thick blood and it is a rheumatological illness and an autoimmun blood-disorder also. It is diagnosed either by symptoms or/and by antibodies (bloodtests) they take twice and with 12 weeks apart.

Best wishes from Kerstin in Stockholm

Hi

My colleague, Kerstin, has given you a good description of APS/Hughes Syndrome.

Please confirm if you have been diagnosed with it.
