I am in the process of being diagnosed with PBC. Everything is positive except my IgM levels are normal. Can I still have PBC?

Help! Gyno said i should have 3 miscarriages to have aps!
Just posted yesterday a question about getting heparine/ clexane. I was just phoned by the hospital saying they didnt want to treat me as APS since i had a healthy child and after that 2 miscarriages so that wouldn't suffice, since the official diagnosis to receive the diagnosis is to have 3 miscarriages

INR question
Hi everyone. Im in the US and my lab tests never exactly state the ratio.my DRVVT is 27 (range 37-50). Anticardiolipin IgM 14.5 (range0-11). IgG 22.3 (0-23).factor VIII 66.8(50-200).INR .96(.86-1.18) . How do i figure if the inr is ok? The hemotologist was more concerned over the aps than the vonwillebrands

Professor Graham Hughes' October blog
October was a busy month. The national arthritis charity 'Arthritis Research UK' held a patients' meeting on lupus at the Royal College of Physicians - a very welcome 'first' for this important charity. Two of my colleagues from the London Lupus Centre, Dr Chris Edwards, Professor Munther Khamashta

Can anyone understand these results!
I've posted previously about possible PBC, turns out my auto immune heamolytic anemia is back and hospital are re-testing regarding PBC, in the meantime I have full results from previous tests. I tested positive for AMA/ Anti-mitochondria IgG 160 Anti-mitrochondria igM 320 Mitochondrial Antibody

Hi all, i finally got my referral to St Thomas' - lovely man and worth his 'wait' in gold!!!! He asked most of my symptoms before I even told him,and had the all knowing look on his face and sympathised with how it interferes and takes over your life instead of the usual look of horror and recoiling

Allergies, Intolerances and Autoimmune Diseases
When most of us think of the word "allergy" we are thinking of a systemic immune response, or at least an immediate and visible reaction. For myself as a child, allergies meant allergic rhinitis - streaming eyes, runny nose, and atopic reactions (rashes, usually itchy) to almost everything it seemed.

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

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

anti sickness (as and when required) and generally 1 paracetamol if i take it early enough then it will stop a migraine in it's tracks.

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

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??

Confused and worried
I was diagnosed with APS after having 3 miscarriages and raised Igm levels of 21. Apart from the miscarriages I feel fine, so Dr Khamashta said I have pregnancy/obstetric only APS and advised I take 75mg aspirin daily. I'm worried because I've been reading about some of the awful symptoms some of

neurological symptoms
Hi I found out today I have Hughes syndrome after having 3 different elevated IgM anticardiolipin antibodies. The levels were 22, 19 and 14 so I think I'm of pretty low level. However I've been really ill all year starting with daily migraines for 3 months then having a possible transverse myelitis
