Hello from New Zealand

[-jane-]

Hi there,

I am new to this site, however familiar with APS/ Hughes Syndrome, its symptoms and difficulty in management. Recently stephanie and i registered New Zealand Antiphospholipid Syndrome into a Charity, although we are still working out the bits and pieces it is hoped that this may be a start for support and information sharing / resourcing for patients, and also clinically - provide some leadership in terms of representation at the next conference in 2013. heres hoping anyway

For me personally I was diagnosed in 1999 in Auckland via symptoms on chorea. i then moved to Brisbane Australia and since then carried through in neurological difficulties epilepsy and pregnancy loss. I have now returned to Auckland to live.

Anyway good to find this site after being reccomended to join by Patrick. thanks.

I will have a little snoop through it and see what it is all about.

Cheers Jane

It was good to see your question and it is good to know that there are alot of people in the big wide world with the same problems. This site has been so helpful, because at first you think you are the only person suffering from these things. The questions are very much like mine and so you can get info which may be so beneficial to us.

Take care

Hello again Jane

Great to have you on board here and, as I mentioned earlier, if our HSF charity can help your new one just let me know. You'll have so much to do at the moment, it will probably take a while before you can really get going.

Liking your Facebook page - I emailed all our Australian/NZ members to let them know about it and will also point them to your charity when the website is up and running.

Good luck with everything

Kate
