I was diagnosed with Tumid Lupus- told to wear sunscreen and stay out of the sun- that's it but I know my body is feeling something more than just this horrendous itch. My ANA Is negative. I feel like i Have more symptoms but I'm not getting answers to other body tingling, itch, swelling I get. Anyone have any success with a diagnosis that might explain the negative ANA ?

@llklem That’s really terrible that you weren’t told very much about timid lupus. I found these sites, one from Mayo Clinic, and the other from the National institutes of health. The article from Mayo explains the basics of lupus and NIH (very scholarly) talks about timid lupus.

Are you seeing a rheumatologist for the lupus? If not, ask your PCP for a referral. You need some more answers!
Call tomorrow and let me know what you learn!
