High IgM and other markers
Hi, just had some more blood tests and my globulin and IgM levels are high. I understand they're linked with autoimmune and inflammatory conditions. Has anyone else experienced this after a recent PA diagnosis? Thanks.

Lupus or another Autoimmune Disease?
I’m 50 yr old female with issues, RLS, Hashimotos, Autoimmune Atrophic Chronic Gastritis, intestinal Metaplasia, Iron Deficiency Anemia w/transfusions, B12 deficiency, and now this horrible hip and joint pain. I know if you have one Autoimmune Disease you’re likely to have more. I’ve had a full work

Monoclonal components
Dears, I have a question. I am in treatment for my CLL (13q, not mutated, with monoclonal component in gamma zone) with 2 cps of Ibrutinib. Since the beginning my IgG, IgM, IgA are quite low, but I never got any treatment because I had no issues with that. The result of the treatment with Ibrutinib

Immune suppression caused by Urso
Hi all, I only recently learned that Urso has suppressive effects on the immune system. One research paper I read, and there are others, lists the effects - apologies for scientific jargon! Urso suppresses the production of immunoglobulins IgA, IgG and IgM (although IgM is generally chronically raised

Low Immune System
I was taking Rituxan infusions for my RA. It has lowered my IGA, IGG and IGM. They are antibodies called immunoglobulins in your body. The antibodies are proteins that your immune cells make to fight off bacteria, viruses, etc. The immunoglobulin test can show whether there's a problem with your immune

Help for my 31 year old son please. First post.
He has just had some blood test results, would appreciate any ideas because of the low Ferritin and Folate. He is a Type 1 diabetic. He became ill in the Spring, had been working very long and unsocial hours in hospitality. He has symptoms of Fibromyalgia and his GP is close to giving him the diagnosis

Advice please 😌
Hi everybody, It’s nice to meet you all! So I’m sure you have loads of people posting on here about their frustrations with the NHS/GPs etc. therefore I won’t bore you with all of the details. My journey began in Dec 22 with what I thought was a bout of viral infection-induced joint pain in my hands

Covid, strange beast.
I find Covid a bizarre virus. I have had 3 times , hospitalised once. I am in remission after stage 4 diagnosis in 2020. My wife last returned from a company business meeting in Malta attended by 500 employees. She and many of her work mates now in bed with Covid. This is the 4th time my wife has had

low Immunoglobulins
Hello Everyone, My CLL is actually under control with normal labs, except low immunoglobulins. IGA and IGM basically nothing, IGG 401. Taken off Zanubrutinib when I got Covid in July 2022, been off since then. Continually tired, some days exhausted. With lower extremity pain, feels like inflammation

Is it PBC or not?
I have been on the pbc yes/no rollercoaster for a week or two now. Today I got some results but have to wait another 10 days to see the GP to interpret them! I just want to be put out of my misery and know, one way or another. If I have it, put me on meds and let me get on with living. The not knowing

Very high ACA IgM
Saw a new MPN doc couple weeks ago who found I have a very high ACA IgM, 104 was my value and reference range is 0 to 12. Also have an elevated LDH. Suspected that I may have APS syndrome (some form if it) but I have to retest in 12 weeks to see if it’s still high. In the meantime he advised that I try

No diagnosis as yet 😔
Hello all,I am new to the forum and thought I would just see if others here were like me. I tested positive for AMA last year after getting routine blood tests done as I was (and still am) getting mouth ulcers on my gums.
