Lupus

Has anyone been diagnosed with Lupus as well as Celiac?

I just got the results of my bloodwork back and my doctor thinks that I either have rheumatoid arthritis or lupus because my ADA levels were very high.

I looked up the symptoms of lupus and I have most of the more common symptoms.

I am going to a Rheumatologist to get a difinitve diagnoses.

There is a statistical correlation between celiac, lupus, Hashimoto's hypothyroidism, and psoriasis.  A person who has one of these, has a higher chance than average of having one or more of the others.  I have psoriasis, Hashimoto's, and celiac.  My Dad had lupus.

Thanks Marie! I am not sure if I should hope it is Rheumatoid arthritis or Lupus!

I just hope it doesn't take too long to get in to the the specialist.
