Protien S Deficiency and ITP was created by sherylisaacs@att.net
I am curious if anyone else has a clotting disorder as well as ITP. I also have multiple autoimmune disorders:Hashimotos , Graves Disease, Graves Opthomology, Alopecia Arearta ...and Fibromyalgia.

The ITP was found during an inflammation flair that turned up nothing...high CRP , white blood cells and other "off" things in my blood. I also have to take Vitamin D due to low levels. I have also had lung noduals and "neurological events" I was told possible mini stroke/ complicated migraine. I have also lost multiple children in-utero due to hydrops fetalis, which is like lightning strike in the same place three times.

Any input would be appreciated! I believe somehow it must be all connected. Thank you in advance!So sorry if this is rambling, on my phone I cannot see the whole screen...lol

The clotting disorder sounds a lot like antiphospholipid antibody syndrome, a clotting disorder similar in effect to protein S deficiency, and which also results in pregnancy loss. Have you been tested for antiphospholipid antibodies? It is not unusual for this syndrome and ITP to be present in the same person.

Have you not been diagnosed with Lupus?
