Hi Scandal,

Have you had a diagnose of Behcets´s or APS?

I understand you are wondering about both illnesses but as you do not write so much it is difficult to know. You are on both sites, APS and Behcets. Leg ulcers is possible with APS at least.

Hi, be aware if testing for other things, alongside Hughes Syndrome/APS, that at times other things can be going on, lots of information here: healthunlocked.com/hughes-s... and also here: ghic.world/

Certainly with an untreated Thyroid, skin conditions can worsen due to the outer epidermis receiving less circulation: health.harvard.edu/newslett...

So great to investigate your Hughes Syndrome/APS and possible Behcet's but a good idea to bear the above in mind. MaryF
