How many autoimmune diseases can you have?

I've lost count of how many autoimmune diseases I have, not kidding. Maybe 20? I try to keep a list but new ones are always being diagnosed so I gave up, and the doctors have given up on me too. I was once a very active mom of 4 born close together. I was a long distance hiker on the Appalachian Trail in the days before cellphones. I carried a 50 pound pack and weighed 115 pounds. I shouldn't have carried that much weight. But now I'm in a wheelchair because of Multiple Sclerosis, Polymyositis, Parkinson's, & other crap. I'm on oxygen for interstitial lung disease caused by Antisynthetase Syndrome, an autoimmune disease that also causes a lot of other stuff like "mechanics hands" & other things that I can't remember right now. Plus the usual ones like Lupus , Sjögrens, Reynauds, Systemic Sclerosis, and Ehlers Danlos, MCTD, MAST, Smooth Muscle Antibodies Autoimmune Disease, Tarlov Cysts, Degenerative Disc Disease, Autoimmune Hepatitis, Degenerative Cervical Myelopathy, Nerve Demyelination, Gastroparesis, Small Vessel Disease, Small Fiber Neuropathy, honestly I can't remember all of them. And the new ones keep coming. Rotten DNA. I'm in constant pain all over, everywhere, I can't even sleep in a bed because of an esophageal disorder that makes me vomit in my sleep. So I sleep in the recliner to keep my head elevated. Recliner to wheelchair to bathroom to shower & toilet , then back to wheelchair and then back to the recliner. That's my life. 🫤

You did all the right healthy things, and this is what you get?? There's no fairness in this damn world.

Have you looked into igenix in California for blood testing of Lyme disease and Co infections most of your diseases are from Lyme believe it or not I know I have them all also And my doctor tells me there's over 40 patients in his office with the same thing so I highly recommend it getting tested for Lyme.
