Subject: s/l bout of lupus anticoagulant
It sounds like the doctor says either "He was still with a bout of lupus anticoagualant" or "He was still with a battle of lupus anticoagulant". Do either of those make sense? Is there another word that he could be saying instead?

increase the tendency for coagulation/DVT. In this regard, I agree with you.
However, maybe the elevation of protein S at the time of the DVT rules out protein S deficiency as a probable cause of the thrombotic episode. Is there any such implication? The clotting mechanism involves a complex cascade of activation events of numerous factors, and Protein S is just one cofactor for another anticoagulant protein.
Still, it would be wise to flag the doctor and let him put the final word.
