How many autoimmune diseases can you have?

Posted by sallysworld73 @sallysworld73, Feb 28 12:51pm

I have just been given my 8th autoimmune diagnosis. For the love of GOD 🙏🏻 how many can one person have? It’s exhausting 😴 to say the least. And they’re all rare ones . Go figure. And no one in my family has them but they tell me that it’s hereditary. I read it’s extremely rarely for ppl to have over 5 …. Really….well lucky 🍀 lucky me! 🙄 does Mayo Clinic ever do consulting on a pro-bono basis? I’m quite positive they don’t take my insurance….🫤

How do you get to work with the Mayo Clinic? I would love to. In Fl my Dr wanted to send me there but it was to far…

Hi there! I tried for over a year to get accepted but couldn't get in. Fortunately, my good friend was tired of seeing me sick all the time and, he had connection to one of the big Mayo donors. He contacted the individual, sent him the details of everything going on with me, the donor took it from there. I travel to Jax from Charleston, SC and the doctors manage to book multiple appointments/tests over the course of 2 days. I am thankful and grateful.
