Thanks for your response and to answer your questions yes I do have family members with Lupus and Connective Tissue Disorder. The doctors are well aware of that and I have been tested extensively for Lupus and IGG4 and other sub classes of that.
Interestingly I did move into a new home that we visit probably 2 times a month for about 8 days. We bought the home in October and this happened in January. Not sure if there is any relevance since previous to that we owned a home very close by the new one. I am going to look into coming to the Mayo clinic for help with this problem. Thanks again.
