Hi there,
I have APS and moved to Ontario (near London) from Alberta 3 years ago. I have yet to find a doctor who has any specific knowledge of APS, and would like to.
I was diagnosed in 2013, after being hospitalized with multiple clots (the main one was all throughout the IVC, extending into renal veins, and new clots developed in my legs soon after). I was 43 at the time. Also dx with Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia at the same time, which corrected itself after a course of Prednisone.
I am on Innohep (Tinzaparin) 22 units daily by injection....for "the remainder of my days", as one doctor eerily put it :).
Just wondering if anyone out there is from Ontario and has found someone good. My GP can't answer my questions, so she referred me to a hematologist - and she couldn't either.
I am starting to get worried that I am not staying on top of this condition as well as I should be....aside from the injection in the stomach.....every day.....for 7 years now.....fortunately I have some padding there, which really helps (thank you Cadbury cream eggs) :).
Thanks for reading!
