Autoimmune disease?
Dr then ordered further bloods to rule out hepatitis auto immune
diseases
etc. All normal except one of my
autoimmune
bloods has come back positive. Hep-2 cell autoantibody - positive (potentially abnormal) ?!! Dr not helpful and almost felt like I was a nuisance to be honest.

Med suggestion?
hi all- I got diagnosed with a couple other
autoimmune
diseases
recently and in addition to that, my early sjogrens panel just came back positive. They haven’t done any biopsies/scans, but the ss-a and SS-b were negative. I have super dry eyes and mouth along with fatigue and neuropathy.

Study investigating journeys to diagnosis recruiting people with lupus, Sjögren’s, and/or UCTD
A new study is investigating why it takes some people a long time to get diagnosed with systemic
autoimmune
rheumatic
diseases
(SARDs) like lupus, UCTD, and Sjögren’s, but other people have a much shorter time to diagnosis.

Ndt and iodine supplement?
(for
autoimmune
diseases
they dropped to TPOs less than 0.12 and TGABs less than 0.20). So I'm here to ask for advice, should I take this supplement? I'm worried about iodine 😐 Thank you to those who answer my question ♥️ (My English is from a "translator", I'm not a native speaker)

Sjogren’s without dryness?
I recently changed rheumatologists and had new full bloodwork for a second opinion and he confirmed my diagnosis as I don’t have symptoms or bloodwork findings to point to another
autoimmune
disorder. Maybe I have one of those non-specified
autoimmune
diseases
but is closest to Sjogrens?

How Long from Compensated to Decompensated?
Both are
autoimmune
diseases
. At this point she is totally compensated. Health care providers are taking this very casually, one even saying, "come back in a year and we will look again." I admit to being a little freaked out since at this rate she could be decompensated in a year.

hEDS and B12 comorbidity?
I recently saw a rheumatologist and whilst we’re waiting on test results to rule out other
autoimmune
diseases
, I think she was strongly hinting at hEDS with COVID as an exacerbating factor. Is there a link between the two?

New research - COVID-19 Tied to Autoimmune Disease Risk

Assistant Dogs.
I searched google a few years ago about assistant dogs because I thought I need one of them, but I got nowhere. Today I saw a demonstration of an assistant dog at work, it brought me to tears because it showed me just how much I do need one, how good , helpful it would be. I really think it would

RA and rashes
hi, I’m just wondering if you can get rashes with RA.. I’ve developed a few patches of small rashes possibly a bit like hives, though one is a circular rash (which aware could be ringworm but don’t think it is).. also aware these may just be fungal rashes. we have lupus in the family and although

Lupus connected to Radiation
I recently read an article where someone felt that Lupus was connected to radiation exposure. Around 1989 I had a full radiation treatment for breast cancer. Back then they radiated your entire side back to front and I had horrific burns. 25 years later I was diagnosed with Sjogrens and Lupus. Has anyone

Patient's view least important in diagnosis 🙄
Who'd have thought it? Research for Lupus Trust and in a Sjogren's UK newsletter but very applicable for us and others...https://academic.oup.com/rheumatology/advance-article/doi/10.1093/rheumatology/kead685/7473364?login=false UPDATE: larger photos of all three pages of the article uploaded below.
