Autoimmune conditions

[infomaniac]

Just been reading something on another forum about the likelihood of acquiring another AI condition once you have one (I have Hashis). I have been GF for over 5 years, avoid soy, fluoride, some dairy and a few other things that I was diagnosed as being sensitive to by a Kinesiologist. I have done the AIP diet a couple of times and besides losing weight I can't say I felt any different.

I'm just wondering how many people are fairly strict (without going full AIP) and have still developed another AI condition?

I have Pernicious Anaemia (diagnosed years before) before being diagnosed many years later as being hypothyroidism. I have also had Alopecia Areata three times.

I believe it is common for other autoimmune disease to develop if we have one.
