A few weeks ago, we were informed that my wife (28 years old) is affected by a
genetic disease called APCR.
The only information we have about this disease are :
- it is a genetic disease apparently due to the mutation of gene
- it has been recently discovered (2 or 3 years ago)
- it is related to blood coagulation
- The effects are increased if the patient eats food containing a high
concentration in vitamin K
- Due to this disease, my wife has alrealy made 2 pulmonary embolisms
in 1 year.
Can someon provide us with more information about this problem, references
in scientific litterature, known treatments, aso...
Thank you for all your answers.
