Is anyone else in this situation? What does it mean for your life? How do you deal? I have antibodies for three autoimmune diseases:
- Sjogren’s SSA-a antibodies for Sjogren’s Syndrome – dry eyes but mouth is okay
- dsDNA antibodies for lupus (was 3 in 2021; most recent result is 14)
- Hashimoto’s (thyroid peroxidase AB and thyroglobulin ab) but TSH is normal
- Plus positive ANA for years
Mostly I’m just so fatigued, and it’s frustrating to be so tired and have antibodies for three diseases but be told you don’t have clinical disease yet. The lupus result is scary to me because it’s gotten so much higher in the past four years; however, I don’t have clinical disease yet, and my physician said maybe I’d never develop it.
Has something similar happened to anyone else?
This might be my favorite dress ever.
