Dear Madam,

Yes there definitely exists a possibility that you are having APS .I would like to know if you had any oral ulceration , photosensitivity , raynauds phenomenon etc. kindly send me your antibody profile .and tests already being done to establish the exact etiology .Only after that treatment could be suggested.

Take care.
