Hi Everyone, I havent written in a while. I am having a terrible time with my gums they are swollen and bleeding plus the dentist said I have major bone loss due to the Hughes. My hemotologist wants to put me on DDAVP because my Factor VIII is too low due to the vonWillebrands disease, however Im scared that it will mess up the antiphospholipids! Im so confused! Any suggestions?... Teresa P.S. I had a major bleed in January. Plus i was in the hospital Feb. for dizziness

Thank you Taffy...Thats probably what im going to end up doing as well, I just need an ok with my hematologist because I have the hemophillia as well so the dentist isnt thrilled with taking my teeth out. I just done understand why they will put off the inevitable.
