A member asked:
In 11/2014 i was hospitalized with bilateral pe. 3 lupus anticoagulant tests have come back positive, and he said it's primary. does that mean aps?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Almost...: In my experience it can be primary, but other autoimmune disease must be excluded. IgM, followed by IgG anti -cardiolipin antibodies are the most problematic! This is important, since apart from anticoagulants, other drugs may be needed.
