high protein levels in urine
Hi everyone! I had a question. I was diagnosed about 2 years ago with UCTD and have been taking plaquenil since. Things are going well until I just did a physical for life insurance and it came back being high levels of protein in urine. Highest level for the range is 14 and mine came back in at 18.

Boston scientific
I am just wandering if anyone else has the Boston scientific spinal cord stimulator implanted for crps. If so how often do you need it reprogrammed. I’ve had mine for about a year and a half and I’m on my 3rd program.

Trying to interpret blood results? Can any of you wonderful people help.
Hello to anyone reading. I’ve requested my most recent blood test results which gave me a Limited Systemic Sclerosis diagnosis. One thing that strikes me is the Anti dsDNA Antibodies result, my Rheumatologist has NEVER mentioned this? I’ll post a photo, if anyone is good at interpreting them, that would

What is a fever? (Lupus related)
I finally have a rheumatology appointment next Friday so I've been collecting my notes from my previous doctors' appointments and any new developments. Because one of the things we're looking at is lupus, I have been taking my temperature regularly but I have no idea how to interpret it. Yeah I know

Positive ANA
Hi all. I've had symptoms for 18 months on & off. GP very dismissive but now had a positive ANA. Waiting on ENA results following ANA. Anyone have any advice or helpful thoughts please? 😊

Hospitalised and signed off after medics once again fail to understand Hashimotos
I am at home, signed off for two weeks, banned from driving or going back to work until I have a 72hr ECG and an MRI of my head. I went to my GP with visual disturbance in my left eye. I'd had a cold for a month, sinuses were so inflamed I thought they were pressuring my eye. GP sent me straight to hospital

9 years since they first found the M2 antibodies, 16 years since my alk phos started being elevated. My story.
I see so many questions on here about labs and what do they mean. I remember being so afraid when they first started looking at PBC in me. It all started with a new patient physical back in 2002. My alk phos test results came back elevated, only issue in the whole kebang, my new PCP(primary care physician

Tested positive ANA titre 320, speckled
I have Hashimoto’s which was diagnosed about 4 years ago. I’ve been running low grade fever, fatigue, achy muscles for awhile so went to GP. She did bloodwork but I’ve only had one short convo with the nurse and she said I tested positive ANA but negative for Lupus. I went in for several more blood tests

Don’t know what to tell my rheumatologist at my 1st appointment.
Recap, I went to my GP for a physical since I had horrible pregnancies which caused my vitamins and minerals to be out of sync as if I were a person with Anorexia and bulimia. I had a condition called Hyperemesis gravidarum back to back as my babies are 2 and 1. I did tell him I felt tinglingly in my
