Hi all,

Just a quick question really, what were your early signs of autoimmune issues?
My GP is testing my glucose esr, cbc and rhumatoid factor as have wierd symptoms for years, but these have got worse since having baby no.4. I have severe tinnitus, raynauds, and have had 7episodes of viral type body aches in the last 10months varying in length and severity (always when ive done too much, or stressed!) I also have gastritis, and palpatations. Oh and osteoarthritis in my hip which also cause joint pain. This sound familiar to anyone? In between 'episodes i feel well but tire easily so feel this is too mild for lupus? and i only have occassional joint swelling so doesnt seem to fit Ra either....help!!

Thanks in advance

P.s forgot to mention mum has m.s, and her sister thyroid issues so it runs in familly!
 
Hi, I don't have Lupus or RA but I do have pretty severe Raynauds and I was wondering what you did to prevent/stop an attack? mine is pretty much constant in my hands and feet and is becoming painful.
