It is not always that easy to just find another doctor. In my area, there are so few Rheumatologists that it took me 8 months to get an appointment. This is after the pre-screening paperwork I had to complete and the bloodwork my Primary Care Physician took. I already have one diagnosed autoimmune disease, Hoshimoto's, that is treated by an endocrinologist. He suggested from my other symptoms, that I had Sjogren's. Now I have found out, through my Gastroenterologist that she is fairly sure I have Autoimmune Hepatitis, which I didn't even know was a thing. My oldest sister had a horrible case of RA that ended up killing her by the age of 54. I have my first appointment with a Rheumatologist tomorrow and I hope it goes well b/c I am getting worse by the day.

[@kdani11307982]

Rheumatologist don't care how many symptoms you have had or the actual physical manifestations. All they care about are those bloodwork numbers and if you don't have them you can have enlarged salivary glands, fingers that turn nearly black when you're cold like Reynards syndrome and still not get treated and even be told there's nothing wrong with you go have a good life. I have zero respect for this profession. By the time you meet their criteria you have to have medication's at such high doses that you can develop cancer and a whole host of other side effects. If they would treat patient sooner they could use smaller doses of these serious medication's. Something has to change but it won't be during my lifetime.

[@kdani11307982]

@@annatapl i've been to two of them and I have an appointment for now a third one. Frankly I've just lost hope. They don't seem to care that I've had 37 eye infections in a little over four years and now my submandibular glands and parotid glands are enlarged and when they did the saliva test I have almost none. Not to mention all the other symptoms with skin, joints and a lot of random other things. For doctors it's all about your blood work and I have been on the autoimmune diet for four years so I may never have that blood work and so they don't care how uncomfortable I am around my neck and that my speech is messed up from my dry mouth. I always test negative for Sjogren's syndrome.

You are not alone. I miss my old self. I can't stand this trapped body. It's like jail at home. Drs have been zero help. Meds are horrid. R/A fighter, 2nd year, I still have a hard time believing I have this. I force myself to move my lymph system. Take herbs, and vitamins, and try to eat as clean as possible, being that I can no longer open anything like Tupperware, have they gotten tighter? 😂 Drs want me to get on biologics and I don't want to. Trying to save money for my wellness chiropractor, fabulous experience. All goes back to the spine. I've learned more from others than anywhere else. Real people, real results. Light hugs and prayers for all those suffering. Went to a family reunion and found out that a whole side of my cousins have one form of autoimmune disorders. Blew my mind. All across the country, so what is it? Food, water, air? All of the above? I don't know. Just fighting mad. Castor oil is amazing. Grated ginger compress literally helps with inflammation!! As does a grated potato for pain. I guess it gives the section nutrients that aren't making it to the area. Been using castor oil for my bone spurs on my feet and have watched them shrink.

Thanks so much. I suffered skin disease at 73 no one knew why. I thought I would die. Finally dermatologist started me on Dupixent. But this is not whole cure. I think I am allergic to titanium dental implants I got at 71. Finally I am going to get metal testing. I bet if implants are removed my skin and severe walking problems will disappear. I thought I was only person in world with my very painful symptoms so I AM HAPPY there are rheumatologists who find an answer for people who have diseases their patients may not even have heard of before.

In urma v. din clasa a opta am făcut sclerodermie localizată. Un coleg a facut cancer osos și nu a apucat sa termine liceul. Mie mi-au descoperit după ce am stat la soare pentru că se observau mai bine, două bubițe și asa am crezut că de la soare i s-a declanșat și colegului cancerul. Deși medicii dermatologi nu au recomandat biopsia, mama mea a hotarât investigarea mai departe pentru că se temea de cancer. La biopsie a iesit sclerodermie localizată, cum au spus trei medici dermatologi, dintre care unul era Prof.Dr. Pe la 31 de ani m-am gândit să fac v. antigripal ca să pot să ingrijesc mai bine de copii, sa nu răcesc, cel mic avea cinci ani si era f. energic. Ghinion, am dezvoltat SLE, la mai putin un an de la v. Inainte cu șase luni fusesem diagnosticatâ cu celiachie, că eram curioasă dacă am, fiind la modâ investigația. Când am avut prima fază acută de SLE, trecuseră 6 luni de când țineam regim fără gluten si am rugat pe dr. dacă tot imi ia sange sa-mi ia și pt. celiachie. Mi-a spus că nu imi ia, că nu are nici un rost ca "acuma toti anticorpii sunt măriti". Și uite-așa mi-am dat seama că nu am nici o celiachie, iar anticorpii aceia nu sunt specifici, cum se susținea pe atunci. De atunci nu am mai ținut regim fara gluten, oricum imi era greu să-l țin. Mama mea a facut v. antigripal la 72 de ani, tot primul si ultimul din viața ei, pentru ca s-a temut de noua boală și nu voia sa facă noile v, și in șase luni a făcut embolie pulmonară si trebuie sa ia tratament pe viață. Hematologul zice că are trombofilie genetică (bine că pâna la 72 de ani nu a avut nimic) și tare s-a mai mirat că are copii pentru că din punctul lor de vedere ar fi trebuit sa fie infertilă. Dar nimeni din familia noastră si inaintașii nostri nu sunt si nu au fost infertili. Toți avem copii si i-am avut fix când ni i-am dorit. Parinții mei nu au boli autoimune, doar bunicii au avut: bunicul din partea mamei psoriazis a facut si artrită psoriazică la batrânețe,, iar bunica din partea tatalui a avut artrita reumatoidă, eu mă gandesc că poate SLE era, pentru că nu a avut modificări ale articulațiilor degetelor de la mâini sau picioare si de câte ori o duceau parintii mei la medic, toți ziceau că nu ii găsesc nimic. Pentru ca să facă exerciții cu degetele, un medic i-a recomandat să tricoteze și ne-a făcut fulare, șosetuțe și veste la toți nepoții.

Din păcate mă tratez singurâ. Am un lupus "ușor", fără afectare organicâ, presupun. În zona în care locuiesc sunt puțini reumatologi și nu mă primesc deși le zic că nu mă pot mișca, primesc programare sa mă vadă peste trei luni, de regulă. O dată totuși am primit peste o lună, când a intervenit cineva. Dar când abia mai poți face un pas, o lună calendaristică e prea mult. De unde să știm câ nu fac chiar o afectare organică la o acutizare, cum sa mă primească peste trei luni? Așa că nu le-am văzut fața niciunuia din cei doi din zona noastră. Așadar iau singură cortizon până imi trece. Am găsit un spital la vreo 70 km, dar mi-e greu și acolo sa ajung, având în vedere că nu conduc pe distanță lungă, iar legatura nu e bună, doar dacă lipsește și soțul de la serviciu pentru mine pot ajunge la spital pentru monitorizare. Așa că nici acolo nu merg din 2019. Ultimii 7-8 ani am luat anual cortizon. Hidroxiclorochină am teamă să iau pentru efecte secundare, când am luat m-am simțit rău și valorile de la ficat n-au ieșit bine. Cortizon iau când ajung să nu mai pot merge. În rest iau ce e natural.
