I'm wondering if I could have Sj?gren?s syndrome but I don't know how I would find out. Can you help me??
She sees a doctor every 2 months. I expressed my concern to him. He didn't think it would be a problem to have a TB test. I'm concerned.
Why are SLE lupus autoantibodies divided into organ specific and non-organ specific antibodies?
I am currently diagnosed with UCTD with a high probability of Lupus. No major organ involvement. For months i had a fever of 99-100 F, this eventually led to the diagnostic tests that revealed the high ANA titer, referral to Rheumatologist and diagnosis. I am currently also dealing with colostridium difficile, or C. diff. It is exhausting to say the least. Currently I have been off of the prescribed vancomycin for 9 days. I am having a small increase in BM and stomach bloating. I also have a 99.1-99.5F temp off and on throughout the day. How can a physician determine if it is once again the lupus or autoimmune condition causing the raise in temp, or the c.diff? Also, I seem to notice an increased temp during ovulation and premenstrually, would lupus have anything to do with this? I seem to be having a hard time fighting off infection, and I imagine this too has to do with the autoimmune condition. My WBC is low (3.7)
