What can I expect with Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS)?

You have APS which ‘’breeds’’ clots. Why are you NOT on an anticoagulant? I’d be worried too. Take one which doesn’t cause side effects….doesn’t matter which one, as long as it works FOR you. Idea is to improve YOUR life. Re eloquis…. Too many side effects which are ignored by manufacturer and med is touted as better than others, but unsupported by facts.

I don’t know why I am not on an anticoagulant ? Eliquis is what my doctor put me on last June when I was hospitalized for a blood clot. I don’t have another doctor appointment until May 2023. Should I reschedule for an earlier appointment ?

Thanks for the recommendations! At this point, my doctor has me on one baby aspirin daily.

I was diagnosed a month ago but they didn’t prescribe me anything. Should I be concerned? I figured it was just something that would exist but didn’t need treatment. Yikes this thread has me a little anxious.
