Guest guest Posted December 31, 2002 Report Share Posted December 31, 2002 I can see where he's going with that - clotting abnormalities. Maybe someone has already run those tests for you (and the lupus anticoagulant and/or antiphospholipid antibodies, too), since at least one of your doctors has given you a lupus diagnosis at some time in your past. Maybe they can check your chart and see if any of those results were ever abnormal before. If your current physicians also believe you have lupus, I would ask them if it is wise that you are on Enbrel. Enbrel is a controversial treatment for those with SLE. Maybe the surgeon should do a biopsy first? [ ] hi > > I had a mammogram and sonogram and for some strange reason the Mondor's didnt show up which i find strange. I found a doctor on the internet from a university and he told me to ask the doctors to run protein c deficiency, protein s deficiency, and antithrombin iii. Im gonna ask the rheumatologist on New years eve. I have to go back to the hospital to check my liver and kidney functions. Thanks. > > mary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
