Diagnosed with Connective Tissue Disease possibly Lupus
OK.....I'm a female age 47 and I have Hashimoto's (autoimmune thyroditis) I've had 2 spinal ops and suffer at times with nerve pain. I've been very unwell for the past 7 mths, at first Doc said I had a tropical virus after coming back from Marrakech but T Lymphocytes raised since then. Back in April

Natural remedies
Just looking through a natural remedies catalogue. Valerian for sleep and stress, St. John's wort for SAD and depression, vitamin B complex for energy. Don't know if that's helpful to anyone? Xx

My appointment at St Thomas'
Yesterday I went to St T's. They have taken a load of blood tests. I asked if the antibeta2glycoprotein was negative this time would I lose my APS diagnosis - it seems that that depends on my consultant up here. I think he goes along with one positive test means you have it - I hope - I would hate to

First lupus clinic visit, what to expect?
Hi all. I have a baffling range of symptoms over the past three years. Lots of tiredness, joint pain, arthritis, infections and a climbing positive ANA. I saw a rheumie a year ago who just said had lot of osteoarthritis and do physio and painkillers. Things have got worse and I am going to a different

Newly diagnosed with Lupus and learning to spot the signs of a flare up
I was recently diagnosed through a positive ana result and still waiting to see a rheumatologist. I have had symptoms that started with extreme chronic fatigue, which initially GP put down to PBC(liver) and/or hypothyroidism, which I have both but he hadn't linked all the little things that had been

Does rosacea affect the scalp too?
I have had a red flush across my face for some time but it is a flat rash (was investigated for Lupus after a positive ANA but all other tests came back negative). Now though I have had angry red bumps (they have no head so not spots as such) come up on my face and head. They come up and then flatten

Technical question: 3 years of positive antinuclear antibodies gone. Why? A few months ago showed a titre of 1:1100. New GP & test negative!
I have had 3 years of ANA positive results correlating with systemic sclerosis. This has been rising in titre every year since my first rheumatology investigation for various aches and pains. (I was ENA negative and I only have a touch of Raynauds). I don't understand why I am now testing ANA negative

Hi. Iv been told last week I have lupus, fibromyalgia and Sjögren's syndrome. I also have poly cystic ovary syndrome.
I'm struggling with the new diagnosis as I had a positive ANA test but negative lupus test. Yet the rheumatologist still says its lupus and has prescribed hydroxychloroquine. Has anyone else had similar experience? Feeling lost :-(

Grrrrrrrr. The dermatologist was my last hope....
I finally got to see the dermatologist about the redness on my nose and cheeks. I had had three months worth of antibiotics and creams after the doctor diagnosed rosacea (I have been diagnosed with fibro but have had a positive ANA test in the past) but it didn't make any difference. The dermatologist

Feeling patronised
As some of you may know from previous posts/questions that I recently saw the rheumatology doctor. He ordered a load more tests and offered the 'diagnosis' of sjorgens serolgy with lupus features. Essentially could be one or other or both but further investigations needed. Treatment has started with

How can my previous positive tests come back negative after a repeat?
I had a repeat test (as requested after 6mths by lab) for my POSITIVE ANA - POSITIVE HEP 2 CELLS (which included a pattern) ..borderline positive dsDNA abs....only to have the test come back COMPLETELY NEGATIVE!!! Does anyone know if this is possible?
