Sister

[angieD]

Hello everyone ,
I hope you are all as well as you can be.
My sister , who's had various symptoms on & off for several years , is being tested for antibodies which I guess would probably be a ANA test.
She's had a flare of symptoms and had a few basic bloodtests done ,which revealed anaemia.
She was dx'ed with fibro,they are going to test her for coeliac (family history),she told them my dx's and other possibilities.They've also repeated her full blood count ,ordered chest xrays etc
She had a miscarriage at 11 weeks in november suffering heavy periods since ,and one previous miscarriage a couple of years ago(unconfirmed), arthritis(worse in summer months) , mild depression,mood swings ,new onset migraines ,fatigue,face rash which was dx'ed as roasia(sp) it doesn't look like any pictures I've seen, bronchitis & chest infections regularly.Ibs ,foggy headed,tips of fingers red

I told her last year to get tested but she just thought I was fussing but now she's worried.

just wanted to get worries off my chest.

Its great to have some where to come and get things off your chest isn't it. I hope you feel better for it.

It sure sounds like your sister as got some health issues with the list of symptoms you have given, i hope that she gets some answers real soon. It will be comforting for your sister to know that she as someone to talk to that understands what she is going thru because as you probably know it can feel lonely at times when you have a serious illness.

Keep us informed with how things progress with your sister and look after yourself too.

Take care XxX Jo XxX GOOD LUCK </span></span>
