thank you for the help! ❤️
I recently posted asking if anyone had pancreatitis issues with lupus (just been diagnosed with cutaneous lupus) and I got some advise & help & support. I spoke to the hepatobillary clinic who removed my gallbladder & they agree it’s most likely the pancreatitis is being caused by an autoimmune issue

Strange definition of pernicious anemia
Found this questionable definition of pernicious anemia on a Johns Hopkins web page about gastritis: [i]
Pernicious anemia
. This is a form of anemia that happens when your stomach can't digest vitamin B-12.[/i] Even the best seem to get it wrong. https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/conditions-and-diseases

Once I start supplementing B12, will my B12 blood tests still be accurate?
I would like to know if blood tests will still be a useful measure of my B12 levels, once I have started supplementing B12. I would be testing active B12. The reason I ask is that I have read pernicious anemia people saying that once they start injections (and supplements too maybe), that the B12 blood

Lupus toothpaste reaction
Hi all, I have had Lupus for a long time but it never affected my mouth before. After a very stressful few weeks/months, I now have a mouth full of ulcers. Cracks on my tongue, lips and the skin around my mouth. I was putting the ulcers down to the Lupus. But everytime I brush my teeth now, my mouth

Newly diagnosed
Hello. I felt unwell for a long time. I've been diagnosed with underactive thyroid and started treatment. My symptoms have been severe and I've really struggled. I feel like every part of my body has been effected and yet from the outside no one can tell and it's hard for people to understand how bad

sun sensitivity
curious question- does Levothyroxine effect you in the sun?? I’ve never had any issues before being in the sun- and today I’ve been out maybe for an hour or so and my skin is so sore and itchy?? I know with having a underactive thyroid you get dry skin etc but this is bizzare?

rheumatoid nodules
I was diagnosed with Adult Onset Stills disease aged 17 in 1979 which is autoimmune RA. I’m experiencing bilateral nodules (Dip) in the tip joint of both idex fingers. Numbness, stiffness, redness, soreness, stiffness and itchiness, really weird . Anyone else?

Underactive thyroid and Peri menopause
Hi, I have started perimenopause and having symptons e.g heat palpatations (tests done but no other medical issues found) mood swings, aches and pains etc… and I am trying to find solutions to help. Have started taking viticulture supplements but it seems really confusing as to which ones are safe

Gel nails and lupus/raynauds
Hi everyone 🌸 May sound like a silly question but Im just curious if anyone here has regular gel nail polish? Is it considered safe when nails are delicate due to lupus and raynauds? Ive had gel polish before, but I found the removal of the gel painful with the scraping technique the nail technician

Inflammatory arthritis & pulmonary embolisms?
After years of x-rays on multiple joints (looking for osteoarthritis) & countless blood tests (looking for rheumatoid factor) - all of which returned negative results - I was finally diagnosed with Seronegative Inflammatory Arthritis in January. My Rheumatologist first tried methotrexate and then leflunomide

Accept nothing question everything...with the proviso that you are well informed
Everything that I have been complaining about for 8 years has now been seen on MRI. The private MRI that I paid for last week. Some of the best money I have ever spent. Not only do I have 'florid' synovitis in my hands, I have widespread enhanced bone erosions in both hands and feet. I also have

Low red cell count but eat lots of red meat!
Hello again, just wanted to check this out with people as I do get quite tired in the afternoon and need to rest. Is this anaemia and so do I supplement with iron? Is there a good one for people with hashimotos?I have been told I have weak digestion and I feel I don't absorb things like iron very well
