Antiphospholipid syndrome

I had a healthy baby in 2005, but in the last year have had two miscarriages. I've just found out I'm pregnant again and to be honest I feel terrified.

I was just looking up some miscarriage things on the internet and read about antiphospholipid syndrome, one of the symptoms of which is joint pain, which I have had after my two miscarriages. I was also diagnosed with erythema nodosum after my first miscarriage, which is also linked to APS.

I'm probably panicking unnecessarily, I'm not even sure if you can have a normal pregnancy like I did when you have this syndrome.
Does anyone know anything about it?
Thanksxx

You need to see a haematologist. The best person in the country is at St Thomas's in London, I don't know where you are, but a referral to a haematologist specialising in clotting should be your first move. HTH

Kate, you could have just started your own thread rather than dragging up every thread about APS even if it's 4 years old!

Thanks KAK - not really used to this so just jumped in. Will start a new thread :)
