Hi, My name is Laurie and recently I was diagnosed with Lupus and a thing called "Antiphospholipid Syndrome". I started to google for information but found that when I started reading the info it sent me into an anxiety attack. (I know it's a stupid reaction but that's what happens) When my Rheumatologist told me this I asked what it was and all she said was "well, your blood thickens too quickly". My next question was "ok, when can I expect to have a heart attack or storke?" She smiled and said "just keep taking your aspirin". So that's all I know about this strange diagnosis. About a month ago I started taking Nattokinase in hopes that it would help.
I'didn't know if Dr, Mercola answers any of these questions in this forum but thought I'd give it a try and see if anyone knew anything.
Thank you so very much for any information you can help me find.

Hi Laurie.........I'm not a doctor, but I am asking you to look into the effects of eating foods with aspartame in them. (Nutrasweet. Spenda, and other brand names for artificial sweetners). Dr. Mercola's website has alot of info on the subject. Maybe that's not the problem, but it was the first thing I thought of when I read your post. Peace.
