Advice on talking to rheumatologist
Since February, I’ve been suffering with weird blisters on my fingers, was initially treated for shingles, then raynauds, referred to rheumatologist after positive ANA test and with rash on face. Rheumatologist was quite dismissive, “just” raynauds, and my joints can’t possibly hurt because my hands

What is happening to my hands?
Hi everyone. I’m Caroline and I’m 25. Nice to meet you all. I’ve always known my hands were strange. People used to make fun of them because they’ve always looked “old” I . I have raynauds,Sjögren’s positive ANA and little to no strength. But as of recent my hands have been going insane. Swelling, tightening

ANA Positive 1:80 Nucleolar pattern 2013 and ongoing pain. The last 5 weeks I can barely walk.

Diagnosis?
Hello all, Firstly apologies if I am in completely the wrong place.

Lupus, Sjogrens or something else?
Last December my blood test showed positive ANA titre 1:1000 with dsDNA and histone antibodies which are typical for Lupus. I went to see rheumatologist who said that my symptoms (sinus problems for years etc.) would match to Sjogrens but he still wanted to double check results few months later. Last

Blood test ‘optimal’, feel so ill
Hello all! I’ve found this forum so helpful and would appreciate advice on latest blood test result which is ‘optimal’ but still feel really ill and lots of hypo symptoms. I was diagnosed with hashimotos end of 2020, and recently had blood tests after 8 weeks on 50mg Levo. For some reason they tested

Could this be lupus or is it something else?
I've been back and forth to the doctor's since 2019 regarding a potential auto-immune condition, but up to now, there has been no conclusion. This morning I had a telephone appointment with a rheumatologist who has said for me to come in for a face to face tomorrow morning. So, before my appointment,

Journey to diagnosis
Hi everyone, hope you’re ok. I’m new here and have been under rheumatology for a year now. I’ve got multiple health conditions and understand that it takes a while to get diagnosed due to the crossover in symptoms. My ANA keeps switching between positive and negative, but the nurse said that happens

I was looking for answers...
I am trying to see if the diagnosis of lupus was wrong for me ( would really like to switch from Warfarin to Xeralto), and thought my negative Anti -DNA blood tests would rule it out.

Need help!
So I have been struggling with quite a lot of symptoms for a while (since I was 17, I am 19 right now). My family doctor did a routine blood work and found out I am deficient in vitamin d, somewhat anemic (runs in the family) and my lymphocytes are 4.4xe9/L. I did a course of vitamin d supplements since

Lupus?
I’ve have had high platelets for the past 20 years and have been living with primary Addison’s and hypothyroid for the past 27 years. I literally never feel good. I’ve been seeing a hematologist and she decided to run an ANA on me. CRP 9.7 ANA Ab screen POSITIVE ANA Titer <1:40 ANA pattern none detected
