Really confused...how to find a good doctor? Blood test results?
Hi, I'll try to keep this short but I'm really confused and don't know where to turn. I'm 23 and have recently moved back to England after 10 years living in the US. From age 9 I have had/been aware of poor circulation, knee pain, loose/hypermobile joints and migraine-like headaches. My loose joints

3 year old child with newly diagnosed ITP advice please
My son was taken into hospital last Sunday with suspected meningitis. After tests etc. it came back he had ITP. His platelets were 3 and he was displaying bruises everywhere. After being in and out of children's ward on Monday and Tuesday, he was seen by a consultant on Wednesday who admitted him immediately

Saw hematologist, eek!, am not sure......
She told me not to worry about my antiphospholipid IgM count of 118 (here in States 20 or below is normal). I have been and am concerned. She kind of brushed me off, but is doing in depth tests and wants me back in 2 months. She agrees I can't take any meds (warfarin or heparin) because I am also

Hi all, my husband (34yrs, very, very fit and healthy man with the exception of ITP) has had ITP for just over a year and a half. He has tried (in order) prednisolone, Ivig, menthol prednisolone, eltrombopag, romoplostim. None of which has worked. During this time his platelet counts has been as high

Does anyone has had a plasmapheresis and antiphospholipid syndrome??
I´ve had a miscarriage due to my IgG and IgM high levels. I want to make a second try and my doctor had recommended a plasmapheresis therapy first to clean up my body. Does anyone has done this??

New to APS and terrifie.
Hi. My name is Linda. I'm from Ohio. I just got my test results today and found that my Beta 2 Glycoprotein IgM is high for the second time since the first test, so the doctor has diagnosed me with APS (the lab doctor, not my vasculitic doctor so far). I'm terrified as I cannot take blood thinners
