A member asked:
Which autoimmune disorders cause low t cells? (hiv neg) how will doc diagnose this for me? other labs ok, but i have episodes of not feeling well
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Vice versa: What disease will develop depends on the type of T cells which are deficient or low. It is the loss of immune regulation which causes autoimmune diseases and not the other way around. Low T cells may also be associated with immune deficiency as well. As for the episodes of not feeling well, it is not specific enough for us to offer you an opinion.
