Hi there. Anti CCP is the more specific antibody for Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) rather than Lupus. It’s possible to have both but RA can present very similarly to Lupus. Treatments are broadly the same.
It can give you Rosacea which can be hard to distinguish. Or sometimes it can overlap with aspects if you’re flaring. It’s a systemic autoimmune disease same as Sjögren’s and Lupus so there are often some overlapping symptoms. If you have RA they are more likely to treat you quickly and aggressively and there are many more treatments available than there are for Lupus or Sjögren’s.
