I have APS-had pulmonary embolism, 5 miscarriages, bowel obstruction. Now I have MS like symptoms. Dr are confused because there are no Brian lesions, spine lesions are anterior & even though the symptoms of weakness in legs & r arm has got worse the lesion is unchanged. The neurologist said I have a auto immune disease but does not believe in Hughes syndrome or has no experience with it. From what I have read I think I have Hughes.i have tried to find a dr w/o much luck. I am in California,USA. Any suggestions?
