My gf has it and we just got her blood levels checked. (Weekly thing). Her blood levels are through the roof and she's on the lowest dose of medication she's ever taken. Basically her blood is so thin that she could internally bleed for no reason. Just thought I'd check here to see if anyone has any experience with it.

good luck buddy, never heard of it

I'm assuming you're seeing a specialist for that condition, that's the only advice I can give

it makes a difference

Thanks for the well wishes. Carry on

Jeez Bourn, sorry to hear that.

They are coming up with cures for everything today. My brother is currently going through immunotherapy whereby he temporarily completely loses his immune system. They rebuild it. But if he catches even a common cold right now it could be fatal. But if things go right, which they should as this is now a tested methodology, they are hoping to kill all the cancer cells in his body.

My brother and a few others are on my prayer list. I'll add your girl.

She has lupus and has been going through that the last 7 years. Lupus actually gets better as you get older were told.

Thanks Mich. She was actually one of the first people to do immunotherapy. It was called IVIG. It saved her life. Thanks for the well wishes.
