@windyshores - I saw that test through my research but it requires someone who understands how to read the test. In light of my rheumatologist already determining that I have no AI condition who else can read the results for that test?

Aother poster mentioned the Avise so I just googled it and posted info on it. @trspac I have never had this test. I had an ANA reflex panel which showed high antibodies for scleroderma . That test is done after a positive ANA. I have no idea why noone ever did the panel in the past. I was diagnosed with lupus 20 years ago but don't really meet the criteria in my opinion.

If you were diagnosed with Sjogren's how would your treatment change?

If you were diagnosed with lupus what medication would you accept?

Are you being monitored for internal damage? I really don't care about labels. I care about kidneys, lungs, heart, gut and am being monitored.

Have you had a Lyme test? EBV?

I cannot take any meds at this point. My friend with RA can't either.

Plaquenil is often the first step. Would that help?

I am seeking pain management, PT massage, and seeing a functional medicine doctor who is very accepting but his treatments are expensive. I have done IV glutathione in the past.
