I’m 50 yr old female with issues, RLS, Hashimotos, Autoimmune Atrophic Chronic Gastritis, intestinal Metaplasia, Iron Deficiency Anemia w/transfusions, B12 deficiency, and now this horrible hip and joint pain. I know if you have one Autoimmune Disease you’re likely to have more. I’ve had a full work up to rule out Lupus by my PCP while awaiting a Rheumatologist.
I had multiple labs, ANA positive, dsDNA negative, Lipus Inhibitor negative , Anti CCP negative, ESR negative, RH factor negative, C3 and C4 Compliment negative, CRP negative, Cardiolipin IgA positive, IgG negative, and IgM positive. Smith Abs negative, CBC and CMP.
Can anyone by experience or knowledge help me to understand these? I mean I know what they are but how likely is a Lupus diagnosis with these results?
no immediate family history of Lupus but my moms half sister does have a diagnosis.
i suffer from excessive daytime sleepiness and fatigue to the point that I can’t function most days.
