A member asked:

Please i need help. i have most symptoms of lupus but negative ana so no one wants to help me. life is going down fast. almost always bed fast. ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See details: Have you seen a rhematologist? If not, do so. If you have, get a second rheumatology opinion. If the doc has ruled out lupus ask for your diagnosis and treatment options.
