For a serous medical advice you really should seek a good doctor.
Some basic info can be found in your nearest medical library (any
university has one). Here is the utterly non-medical and non-professional
info: Protein S helps to inactivate activated coagulation factors (factor
V, AFAIR?). Given this, I imagine the deficiency in Protein S will lead to
an increased risk of thrombosis-related heart deseases and strokes.
