Any Ideas please

My Niece has developed a immune disfunction, but the doctors have no idea, what it is. About 6 months ago, she felt really tired, and her joints hurt. She has bloated up with fluid retention and has put on a lot of weight,

I have Lupus, my sister has thyroid, and my other niece has daibieties.

The specialists have found a thyroid involement, and some defficiencies in the blood tests.

( she had kidney problems when she was younge, having a large cyst removed from her kidney)

Sadly she has not been able to work since this began, and the specialists are back to square one as to what the problem really stems from.

Has anyone any ideas?

Blood tests, xrays and scans have been done,

It is just awful to see a bright bubbly younge woman transform to twice her size, hardly able to move around, and so tired.
