Hello guys whilst not strictly RH related I thought I
Would let you have an update.
I have had my tests reported to me over the phone by my GP.
She said the MRI was normal and the heart scan and 24 hour ECG were all good the cholesterol was 4.1 and triglycerides all good can't remember the number would 1.6 make sense?
However I had one result which was a test for Hughes syndrome and showed anti coagulant markers. Doctor said she did not know how to interpret it but I have googled it and it is pretty scary. Makes me susceptible to clotting and thrombosis heart attack and stroke! It does say it can linked to lupus and people with autoimmune diseases are more likely to have it. It also says they would have to test again and only after two positive results would they usually make a definite diagnosis. Most people with it would be out on warfarin for life.
Does anyone else suffer from this? Pray for me it's a wrong test.
Many thanks
Emma
