I am on warfarin so had my INR Checked due to spontaneous bleeding into joints of hand/wrist. It was 4 so only slightly elevated. I have APLS and now extensive OA in hands, knees and ankles. GP dismissive but have had FBC and blood tests for a battery of things last week. Anyone else suffered the same symptoms and how were they managed?

Have you mentioned this to your rheumatologist and haematologist.GPS not normally clued up on your diseases so you need to speak to the specialist.At my gp surgery one of my diseases doctors never heard of it.most doctors at hospitals too
I think the doctor being dissmissive is a sign that he/she didn't have a clue! Please be persistent in seeking an answer as bleeding into joints is not good for them.
