Anti Phospholipid - looking for doctors

Posted by buddy1800 @buddy1800, Feb 13, 2023

Hello
I had a DVT 2 years ago, and discovered I have APS. Suffering from chronic painful ulcers (livedoid vasculopathy) as a result. I'm on rivaroxaban and now starting Trental. always in compression stockings but feel like this is a life sentence. Looking to come to the Mayo to see if any other options. Can anyone suggest drs I should see?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Autoimmune Diseases Support Group.

@buddy1800 .I know what you mean by finding doctors who can help. The same happened to me until we went to the university medical center near us. We found a great doctor who discusses issues with Mayo Clinic. You can also try the Mayo Clinic network of hospitals. There are quite a few in the country.

Or you can ‘google’ Mayo-educated doctors (in your town).

Are there any University Medical Centers near you?
