Positive ANA Not referred
Hi, I have been suffering with a myriad of symptoms, the most consistent is joint pain in elbow, wrist and fingers. My hand will claw and lock. My GP recently ran some bloods and I had a positive ANA and anemia show up. Other symptoms are shortness of breath, fatigue, face sensitivity to heat which lead

Wheres the best pain clinic for internal spinal cord stimulator?
I have been all over the country going to pain clinics and neuro surgeons. I have syringomyelia which has caused lots of pain down my left leg and round the left side of my chest. I have been to top hospitals in Liverpool, Preston and London. Ideally I would want to go to a hospital in the north

So annoyed!!
Recieved a copy of a letter sent to my gp today from my old rheumie. Apparently I missed my appointment with him (which I cancelled as I am under a new rheumie now). Anyhow the letter said my recent blood tests results (taken in August!) show that I am ANA positive 1:80 (nucleolar) but everything else

Could this be Hashis?
From time to time my throat and neck glands are mega sore ...I don't have cold or flu symptoms but I do feel very cold and can't seem to generate any heat. Are there any Hashis people here who have similar? My muscles really ache as well. Last year I asked the GP for an antibody test and afterwards was

Has any female with AMN had kidney problems? I was diagnosed with end stage renal failure early this year. Came out of nowhere.
I am 65 and started having AMN symptoms in my early 40's. I was diagnosed in 1998 after my second one week visit to the Mayo, first visit was in 1991 with no diagnosis. Then the very long chain fatty acid link with AMN was discovered and that is how they finally discovered what I have when I went back

Good News ? Bad News ?
Hi everyone, I went for Rheumi appointment yesterday, and today I don't feel any wiser even though he said he would like to end my confusion. In June 2011, with first Rheumi, I began treatment for what were 'Lupus Like' symptoms and ANA 1:320, no official diagnosis. With traveling since then (I follow

Confusion with blood results...
Just got a letter from my consultant with blood results. ANA positive 1:400.Is that high? Also, dsDNA <20 kU/L. What does that mean? Is that positive dna results? I'm so confused. My local rheumatologist told me I had lupus. The rheumatologist in Birmingham said fibromyalgia. I've just read his letter

St. John's Wort
I started taking St John's Wort tablets five days ago and I'm thinking about upping the dose and taking two tablets a day instead of one because it hasn't improved anything, in fact my mood has dipped further as far as me going to bed thinking about how I don't have a future and there's no point caring

So confused
I've just come out of an appointment with a lupus specialist. I'm more confused than before. He said that even though I have a diagnosis for lupus, he believes I might have fibromyalgia. He said that my steroid injections wouldn't work with fibromyalgia, after I had told him that I'm significantly better

You guys could diagnose me but the consultant won't!
Well I got a letter yesterday from the consultant telling me that despite the ANA being 'weakly' positive for the third time running (1st time 1:320 2nd time not sure 3rd time 1:160) he was passing me back to my GP as I didn't show any of the symptoms of lupus! He also said that 5-10% of the population
