A member asked:
40yr old fem sed rate rising (cont 2) history: pos ana, fm, lupus anticoagulant, hypothyroidism, le edema. what does all this mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See your MD: The positive ANA and lupus anticoag may be associated with potential for blood clotting issues and clearly represent autoimmune disease potentially, of which the hypothyroidism may be a part. You must be seen by an hematologist or immunologist and be evaluated for systemic autoimmune issues. the elevated sed rate is also associated with inflammatory disease. Feel better!
