It's okay to be a zebra! I have both a bleeding disorder and a clotting disorder! You would think that they would "cancel each other out" but NO! they feed off of each other..*sigh*..keep the faith that you have a good doctor, and go for the quality of life, like I do! ((hugs))

I am not lying about having factor 5, 8 and 10. Dr. Redding told me i am not going for quantity of life. I am going for quality. I have 2 granddaughters that i live and breathe life from. I refuse to give up.

Yes i see Dr. Redding, he calls me his zebra. I am either bleeding out and need blood transfusions. Or i am to think and i have huge blood clots. I get blood clots in muscles and joints. My left wrist and both knees had blood clots in them. They are now replaced. Where do some of you go to Drs?
