Yes: If you feel healthy, i don't understand what you mean by having an autoimmune disease. Do you mean that they found some auto-antibodies in your blood tests? If so, why were the tests ordered in the first place? Even if auto-antibodies were present, it does not necessarily lead to disease.

Yes: Yes you are fine. Why are you perseverating so much about an autoimmune disease?
