Hi everyone
Forgive me if this is posted in the wrong section,I am not thinking straight at the moment :worried: & I apologise in advance for the long post.
I spoke to my gp earlier regarding my daughters blood tests results & now I'm really worried :worried: & need some advice please?
the blood tests were for lupus,APS (my sister has aps) & rheumatoid arthritis and were requested by our gp because as I have mentioned to some of you, I have been concerned about my daughter because for the last few months she's been experiencing knee pain,headaches,dizziness and also her hands & feet are turning blue & red quite often.
our gp blamed her symptoms on a virus at first but then decided to do some tests.
so,my gp has just told me that her results were fine (thank goodness)
however he said that some antibodies have shown up that suggest autoimmune!
he reassured me that they're nothing to worry about & they are not connected to the symptoms she is having at the moment although they do suggest that she WILL develop an autoimmune disease in the future!
:sad:
I asked if this can be quite common in rsults & he said no he had never seen these type of results before??!!
as you can imagine I am very confused and I don't know what to think now??
they don't normally give copies of blood results but I'm going to ring later when they re-open & request a copy.
has anyone got any advice or suggestions please?thank you so much I would really appreciate it :grhug:
I hope this makes sense
luv karen x
