Help please
Dear readers Has anyone on this forum experienced years of symptoms before being diagnosed with lupus please? If so what were your symptoms? I’ve been unwell for nearly 3 years and all the bloods tests carried have come back normal apart from the ANA test which showed slightly higher levels of inflammation

Advice if possible
Hi, Apologies in advance for the long story but I have been so worried about this and am hoping there may be someone on here with similar experience who may be able to reassure me. I am a 65 year old female. I rarely drink alcohol, am only 5 lbs into the overweight bracket, do some form of exercise

Learning to validate myself
I wanted to quickly get on here and share some thoughts. I have struggled with my health since I was 15, I am now 25. It is honestly hard for me to imagine not being sick in some way now because it has been so long. Through all of this, I have been gaslighted and dismissed by so many doctors and other

Chemotherapy with Etoposide and Cisplatin
Has anyone on here had Chemo with these 2 drugs? Just wondering how you’re getting on in feeling normal? I’m 5 years post chemo and my entire body hurts from head to foot. Doctor is looking at possible Lupus but ANA test is negative. I have joint pain, muscle pain, basically pain anywhere and everywhere

First RH appointment tomorrow
I am absolutely beside myself at the moment. After being seriously unwell for 3 months, especially the last week or 2 being so unwell I wonder how cancer could feel worse... I have a positive ANA & DSDNA. I have booked privately to see a rheumatologist because I cannot wait on the NHS as my life has

Food and Flare-Ups, Clinical Significance of ANA
Hi everyone, I am curious about certain foods and their connection to flare-ups. I have found that gluten, soy, dairy, and refined sugars cause a lot of problems for me. Is it common for certain foods to make symptoms worse? What foods do you find help with symptoms? My second question is about ANA
