I was diagnosed with Antisynthetase in December 2024. It has impacted my muscles and lungs. I am on an immune suppressant medication and working on getting stronger by walking and doing light strength exercise. Some days I feel overwhelmed and frustrated not knowing what to expect. My life is not the same….taking the immune suppressant medication I am concerned about being around people and catching something that my immune system will not be able to fight off. Also, the medication Mycophenolate can cause melanoma which I had on my arm in 2017. I feel so restricted on many levels which is so frustrating…..
