>do u have any more med papers, labs and shit? Yes. Everything was fine except for:
+1 Hemoglobin in urine
High ferritin 486 ug/L [12-300]
High Bilirubin 41 umol/L [

i'd say lupus cuz of hematuria so it could be glomerulonephritis due to sle but u should do anti dna and anti smith to confirm
Brody Butler
>lupus no symptoms of lupus
>do anti dna and anti smith Which tests are these exactly?
>glomerulonephritis I think my kidneys are fine.
Anyway, how rare is it to have anti nuclear speckled pattern?
Adam Green
You need to see a rheumatologist
Jaxon Turner
>You need to see a rheumatologist How? Do I have to get a referral?
Josiah Campbell
First of all, what where your complaints when going to the doctor
Lucas Allen
like everything I have intolerance to countless foods that I didn't have before, anxiety, massive ocd, can't sleep, just feel terrible in general, very mentally fatigued
also a barium swallow study said I have duodenum inflammation and hiatus hernia
Luke Baker
I'm not a doctor, but sounds like Crohn's or ulcerative collitis. Ask for a referral to a rheumatologist
Noah Hughes
Okay good diea.
Nicholas Robinson
u dont have to have those classic signs of lupus for u too se u have one u idiot
u can only have vascular changes or even artralgia with some edema etc
Cameron Sullivan
explain to me how is this a chrons or ul.colitis u moron , that's literally 2 dif parts of intestine
COLITIS - colon chron- could be..could be anywhere in gi or it can be just a celiac disease or vasculitis

only real posts in this thread

no
Nolan Thompson
it wouldnt hurt to do anti dna and anti smith just to exclude SLE u know, there are many forms of it
Jaxson Nelson
Antinuclear Antibody is a nice screening test that shows you more than likely do have some sort of autoimmune disease but it's not specific. A lot of the suggestions in this thread can explain your symptoms but your best bet would be to go to a rheum doc who can make a clearer diagnosis.
Julian Evans
ofcourse not, but your life expectancy might be lower than average though. Who cares though, we all die in the end. Might as well die before your body starts hurting and decaying.
Joshua Murphy
>who can make a clearer diagnosis. So what kind of tests will this doctor run? what more tests can possibly be done?
Sebastian Edwards
biological immortality cant come soon enough
Andrew Evans
It just means you're positive for a marker associated with many auto immune states not specific for any one of them.
It also matters the degree to which the titer is positive. If it came back hugely positive that also means something may be going on.
Whyd you get the test? Are you having symptoms of anything?
Andrew Kelly
that just mans youre blood is god removing nuclear bodies
James Torres
>>who can make a clearer diagnosis Went through the same problems.the slow pace of medical field. Took years for me to get accurate diagnosis.then even longer for the right medicine. My family Dr. Wasted many years by sending me for physical therapy,instead to a specialist. Got fed up went to emergency room nothing. Went to Cleveland clinic,got diagnosed in one month.after wasting years on local drs.
Tyler Cooper
what did you have?
Jaxson Hughes
You possibly have gut problems, or spend too much time in a borderline sterile environment full of irritating compounds of various sorts. Many of which (bromine(s)) inhibit your tissue's capacity to bind and properly traffic iodine.
Also, exposure to pulsed microwave fields. Cell phones, cordless phones, wifi, smart meters, lesser extent power lines, etc. Activates voltage gated calcium channels and fucks with your immune system.
Ayden Jones
Now that I read this: You near certainly have gut problems. Get evaluated for SIBO, leaky gut, ulcerative colitis, chrohn's, broader IBS, etc. Same deal I have and have had since I was a very young child. Took me until I was 17 to have it get bad enough to make me outright intolerant to most foods. 23 until I properly determined the underlying nature of the process that lead to the intolerance to begin with.
Brody Powell
>Also, exposure to pulsed microwave fields. Cell phones
stopped reading about there
Luke Rogers
I don't really care that you don't properly understand and accept how things work. That's the way it is, and that's the beginning and the end of it. Read a book or something, you're so far behind the curve that people in the 70's were further along than you.
Gavin Perry
>My doctor is incompetent and says he had no idea what it could be.
Doctors don't know everything under the sun. Seek a specialist such as an immunologist
Nathan Fisher
>Cell phones, cordless phones, wifi, smart meters, lesser extent power lines, etc. Activates voltage gated calcium channels and OP here
How true is this?
Most pubmed studies.
Camden Barnes
It's hilarious how the so called "quacks" were right about all this gut stuff the whole time while the medical establishment was wrong.
>You possibly have gut problems, or spend too much time in a borderline sterile environment full of irritating compounds of various sorts. Many of which (bromine(s)) inhibit your tissue's capacity to bind and properly traffic iodine. How would taking iodine stop this from happening and fix my system?
>Antinuclear Antibody - speckled pattern When lymphocytes are developed within the Thymus, clonal selection occurs; that is, immature T cells that have an affinity for antigens/proteins that are naturally produced by the body are cut out or cease to develop into mature lymphocytes. In a positive antinuclear-antibody test, these mature lymocytes are found to have an affinity to some of the natural proteins produced by cells in your body, specifically the nucleus, mistaking them as foreign antigens. >SLE
Adam Gray
The mechanism by which these mature lymocytes started to attack proteins produced by the body's own nuclei are not completely understood. We know that a signal transduction mechanism within APC's are involved and can be stimulated by the introduction of certain drugs within the body or other environmental factors. > Cell phones, cordless phones, wifi, smart meters, lesser extent power lines, etc. Activates voltage gated calcium channels Citation please

There's also another autoimmune disease that presents with ANA, but I can't remember. I want to say myasthenia gravis but that feels wrong.
In any case, try probiotics and if you actually get diagnosed with something helminth therapy works too.
It's usually used as a screening test for autoimmune diseases like Systemic Lupus Erythrmatosus. But it's not very specific for the disease. If you think it's Lupus, you should get confirmatory Anti-DNA/Anti-Smith Antibody test.
However it can honestly be a range of autoimmune diseases since it's a very sensitive test. You'd need additional testing. What are your symptoms?
Brayden Turner
>helminth therapy This is the most insane thing I've ever read. You're insane.
Nathan Bennett
interesting
why "speckled pattern" though?
Gabriel Murphy
>What are your symptoms? like a million times
ocd, anxiety, fatigue, really bad digestive issues, constipation, food intolerances
Tyler Sanchez
I have another question.
I have high bilirubin levels too. Does that mean my liver is not flushing my bile?
Could it be contributing to my constipation and overall shit health?
Jeremiah Sanchez
I had all the same issues as you, about 9 years ago
I have to change what I eat & don't eat frequently and eat little amounts of different things constantly and it keeps it under control
I had cuts all through my intestinal track and shit and was half dead.. but am all good now
sometimes I have major things to stay away from, like right now I can't have pineapple nor celery or I'll basically fucking die like it really fucks me up for weeks
I still have yet to find 1 doctor who even has a suggestion for me, I had to figure it out myself.. saw specialists in germany & all over the states almost flew out to korea & japan too to get checked out. apparently china is really good at digestion but I'm scared of them
Logan Richardson
Seriously man, cant you google shit or what Do you really trust people here?
By the way, did the doctor just dismiss you like that, without telling you anything else? Were you checked in your local clinic or in an hospital?
Jace Ortiz
>Do you really trust people here? Over doctors in my shit country that don't even care about you? Yeah.
That's why I've been researching this shit myself over the past 6 years
Robert King
Most people will never understand this. Try having highly educated morons try to tell you trigeminal neuralgia type 2 is some strange form of migraine. Food intolerances that dropped my blood pressure to 90/55 and elevated my resting heart rate to 140 bpm for a minimum of 7 hours as anxiety and panic disorder.
The medical profession, viewed as a collective whole, is a pile of malformed asinine trash. A desert having a few oasis doesn't change the fact that it's a desert.
Jonathan Harris

Michael Allen
You may have Hep B or C, go get yourself checked for that shit.
Jaxson Cook
>You may have Hep B or C, go get yourself checked for that shit. Why do you think this?
Easton Bell
>Lupus it's never lupus
Colton Garcia
Did you see a neurologist about the neuralgia? Any other specialist? What did the doctor say about the food thing? How did you get the BP and heart rate measurements?
Because you have the vibe of "that" guy who reads some shit in the internet and believes himself an eminence. Absolutely no offense intended, please keep ur cool
Grayson Thompson
Fix your gut microbiota. Don't ever take antibiotics unless you absolute need them.
Lactobacillus plantarum is a must and I recommed L. rhamnosus and L. reuteri as well. But best be safe and try getting as many different species as you can. Maybe around 20 probiotic species on the market in pill form.
It's not enough to eat them once unless you keep feeding them the correct fibers in order to keep their numbers up and their metabolism working. I'd suggest you get the fibers (like pectin from apples, rs from potatoes).
Autoimmune diseases (as well as allergies) are formed when your gut bacteria do not signal your gut to stay tight and food proteins enter wrong places causing your immune system to react to them. Some food proteins will be somewhat similar to some proteins that your body itself makes and this is where autoimmunity arises. Allergies would also be avoided if the food proteins stayed where they should have stayed, in your gut. But your gut doesn't work if the microbiota is all wrong or dead.

Asher Green
I've tried countless probiotics
they don't work
maybe they're not growing, but I've taken them with prebiotics too
I've done gut bacteria tests and I have ZERO growth of any lactobactillus species
Blake Scott
Gut microbiota as the source of autoimmune disease is largely overblown. They usually account for a small number of autoimmune diseases. Most, if not genetic, are due to failure of negative selection during MHC restriction or failure of T-regulatory cells to produce IL-2. The bilirubin production is strange though. I'm not inclined to believe you have SLE, and I apologize for jumping to conclusions in my earlier post. Positive ANA with a speckled pattern almost always results in SLE but SLE also causes decreased levels of Bilirubin in the blood. The issue with a positive speckled pattern ANA is that they are a non-specific indication of an auto-immune response compared to other ANA test. Do you have any yellowing of the skin? Also, do you know what titre was used for the ANA test?
Eli Taylor
>The bilirubin production is strange though. Something is probably wrong with my liver.
I feel like my entire intestinal tract including my stomach and also my liver is partially paralyzed. I now also have a real hard time burping.
what could this possibly be?
>Do you have any yellowing of the skin? No.
>Also, do you know what titre was used for the ANA test? No, sorry.
Gabriel Green
Honestly, could be anything, hard to tell without diagnostic tests.
