Pneumonia Shot
Hello all....was wondering if anyone on here got the pneumonia shot and if so were there any complications? I did get the flu shot last October a couple weeks after I got sinusitis and bronchitis because I thought I was feeling better. It's been 5 months and I'm still coughing. My hematologist said

Thyroid stimulating immunoglobulin anti body level 1.2
Hello, I was just wondering if someone could help me understand this result? I have a follow up with my gp next week, but this was flagged on my blood results as possible graves- I’m not sure how elevated this is it if it could be something if nothing. There is a family history of thyroid dysfunction

New diagnosis of Probable SLE
I just joined this forum after a recent rheumatology appointment at a major university hospital in Washington, DC, where I met with a great rheumatologist after seeing other doctors with no success. He gave my diagnosis on a scale, saying that his speciality describes lupus using a spectrum kind of thing

Well seen my lung doctor 👩⚕️ and the decided the going to stop ✋ my maintenance antibiotic’s as they don’t believe you can suffer as many infections as I have. I.e new infection every 3 to 4 weeks. Well I told them septic events can happen quicker than I can make appointments to see them. But what

Sinusitis and bronchitis and cough that won't go away
Hi all...hope everybody is doing well. I have had sinusitis and bronchitis and cough since Oct 1st 2017...no fever, night sweats or weight loss. I just finished 3 ivig infusions and have 3 more schedule due to my IGg being low. The cough is mostly tight and congested and other times I can move it

Annual Patient Conference videos (USA)
The Myositis Organization (a US based forum) has links on the front page for the annual Myositis Patient Conference. The presentations are on YouTube, so easy to watch. Some are just the screens used in the presentation and some include the video of the presentation as well. There is much good info

Hasminoto's, GERD, and Lupus
I was diagnosed last week with Hashimoto's, and it was completely unexpected. I had ultrasounds done, by my rheumatologist's request, and the doctor who performed the ultrasounds told me I had Hashimoto's. He told me to speak with my rheumatologist and will most likely have more blood work done, and

Going Crazy!
My 11yr old was diagnosed with ITP Nov 29 with a count of 0. Was admitted into All Childrens hospital and given 2 IVIG treatments that brought numbers up to 35....that was great! But has now dropped to 1 and has been holding at 1 for 3 weeks now. Put on a 4 day dose of steroids that did absolutely nothing

I don’t have to eat my hat!
Repeat ANA, ANCA and
immunoglobulin
today. Also a C3 and C4, shall have to look those ones up unless anyone can enlighten me? I know I had ANA, IG and rheum factor done in September, so assume they were OK then. So I shan’t panic, this seems like a responsible thing to check.

Toddler - acute? Chronic? Slow progress
My 13 month old was dx with itp with platelets at just 1k about 6 weeks ago. Ivig x2 was not successful and we have been on a steroid for about 5 weeks now. Took awhile but saw a jump from 1k to 15k then slow until we made it to 30k. Saw a very small drop when weaning back on his steroid and then a big

Igm levels
I read that almost everyone diagnosed with PBC has an elevated Igm level. I am curious to know if that is true? I have elevated ALP and 24.3 on an AMA - M2, but actually have an Igm level in the 60’s which is the very low end of the reference range.

May be starting to get somewhere...
This led to all my
immunoglobulin
levels being checked and all coming back below range. IgA 0.20 (0.8 - 4.0 g/L) IgG 3.65 (5.5 - 16.5 g/L) IgM 0.24 (0.4 - 2.0 g/L) I’m not sure how significant the low levels are but My GP is referring me to an Immunologist.
