Had my first consultant appointment

Hi, I had a positive Ana test 1:320 and positive RO 52 and 60.

Good news is that whatever I have he believes is currently inactive. No joint swelling, mouth looks ok, eyes are producing tears. Blood pressure all good too. So no medication for now. Just had the dna and aps test done today as gp hadn’t done them.

I also found out today that I am pregnant. Having already got my nhs obstetrician referral for beginning of October I have asked for a call with gp to see if I need to get that brought forward and if I need to do anything now.

Wanted to say thank you for your support. I am likely to develop symptoms at some point in my life, still not determined which way the diagnosis will go!
