Do you have an autoimmune disease such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, type I diabetes, antiphospholipid syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, multiple sclerosis, celiac disease, or a thyroid condition? You are not alone. There are more than 100 autoimmune diseases affecting as many as 50 million people in the U.S.
Some individuals with autoimmune disorders may have a higher risk of developing life-threatening blood clots. To protect yourself, it’s crucial to understand your risk factors, recognize the signs and symptoms of blood clots, and seek prompt medical attention if you develop any symptoms.
Join us Tuesday, April 9 at 7 p.m. ET for our next PEP Talk, Decoding the Link Between Autoimmune Disease and Blood Clots. Hosts Leslie Lake and Todd Robertson will be joined by a clinical expert and a patient to explore this connection.
We hope you’ll join us for this informative discussion!
