At Last.... my results

Positive AMA, then negative?
Six months ago, my AMA was positive (25.6). I just recently saw the liver specialist, who reran my blood work and just posted my AMA as negative. My follow up is in 3 weeks, so I'll have to ask the doc about it then. (I am also positive ANA, so I'm not sure that it was a lab error or not since I have

Hi, I'm new to this site and it's taken me a week or so to summon the courage to actually write something.

Diagnosis confirmed
Hi, while in hospital for another issue, a surgeon asked if I'd ever been tested for SLE? As he'd read my notes, I said no although my sister has had lupus for many yrs. I saw my gp who referred me to a rheumatologist who clinically diagnosed me but wanted me have heaps of blood tests. Just got a copy

PBC
Hi, I've been diagnosed in 2014, stage 2 Pbc, AMA and ANA positive and fatty liver. Been on Urso since then and I have been going very well, but out of no where, I've had a set back where I am extremely tired, pain in bones, itching flared up again. Does it work that way that you have like set backs

Still no dx
I've been seeing a rheumatologist for about 4 months, after my General Dr. Referred me. She did bloodwork that revealed positive ANA of 1:320, among other tests since I was having so much joint pain and a slight chest and upper back rash. I've tested positive for Lupus Anticoagulant, beta 2 glycoprotein

How did you get diagnosed?
Hi, I'm still in the diagnosis process. AMA and ANA positive and symptomatic. I'm just wondering how did others get diagnosed? What investigations did you have? I had an MRI but not had results yet. Thanks, Laura

A study material in respect of LCHF
It is believed that low-carbohydrate diets work best in reducing weight when producing ketosis.1 We report on a 51-year-old white woman who does not have diabetes but had ketoacidosis while consuming a “no-carbohydrate” diet. There was no family history of diabetes, and she was not currently taking any

So so worried I can hardly function and wondering if anyone can help alleviate my troubles. I recently had ANA test for lupus by my Dermatoligist to rule out lupus for marks on my face. This has come back with mitochondrial showing and I now await results of AMA. He said he wasn't unduly worried as

It's official
Hi everyone - it's official - I have Fibromyalgia. I saw my rheumatologist yesterday who told me that the Lupus has taken a back seat for now with a negative ANA test again, and the 'hurting all over' tenderness/burning/stabbing pains and flu like aches and stiffness are down to Fibro. And the fatigue

whats wrong?
I have had lots of blood tests that are out of normal range or positive. I have been pushed from piller to post and seen haematologist, kidney specialist, and now waiting to see a rheumatologist. I know non of my results are very low or high but they are all out of range and lots of them. It seems strange

Hi there I am 36 and I have just found out I have PBC. At this moment in time I am in complete shock and the doctors say don't worry. Ha well easy for them to say. I think I have been in denial as it began in 2013 when I started with a rash on my chest. They took a biopsy and it was confirmed I had hives
