Hello, firstly do you have a diagnosis for Hughes Syndrome/APS? As this forum is specifically for that particular autoimmune disease. We are not medically trained, so can't really assess your medication, however I do know from Professor Hughes himself that Plavix can be 'a bit bruisy' If you do have Hughes Syndrome/APS we do have a list of specialists on this forum for the UK and on our charity website a list of specialists across the world: ghic.world/

It would be best if your consultant had a chat with your GP so they are both on the same page with regard to your care.
