I have hypothyroidism…have I got autoimmune pancreatitis?

I assume I have Hashimoto’s… From childhood, I’ve had recurrent GI symptoms to alcohol and fatty foods. Last August, I had

Chemo Vs ADT
So this is possibly the dumbest question I have asked. But the knowledge on this forum is worth tapping into even for people like me who struggle with all the complexities of PC. So, - ADT suppresses PC but will not kill it. Chemo on the other hand finds the PC cells and kills them. So why do

Can anyone on here advise on these results? Does this mean I 100% don't have lupus? 🤞🏼Or are there different types of lupus that I havnt been tested for?

blood tests
hi lovely people, I was wondering if you could give me any advice. I’m relatively new to all of this and I’ve had a very bad experience at my last hospital. I was misdiagnosed most of last year with Complex Regional Pain disease. My rheumatologist wouldn’t even consider an autoimmune disease. Anyway

Not posted for a while, hope everyone is managing their lupus symptoms as best they can. I did think that using 50spf sun screen and taking hydroxychloroquine would keep my skin lupus at bay. However, I'm beginning to realise it is not just the sun and artificial light that my skin is sensitive to.

Just saw my first rheumatologist yesterday, very confused by diagnosis?
Can you have negative rheumatoid factor, negative CCP antibodies, no pain, stiffness, swelling or symptoms in the small joints (hands, feet etc) & it still be possible to have rheumatoid arthritis? All of my symptoms for the past 5 and 1/2 months seem to be classical PMR (before I started taking prednisone
