Lupus Symptoms Lupus Symptoms?

Lupus symptoms? - lupus symptoms

Ive had symptoms of lupus for more than a month:
- Severe joint pain
- Sun Eruption
- Fatigue
- Swollen glands
- Muscle pain
-etc.

I've never had a butterfly rash.

My doctor has a blood test for rheumatoid arthritis, and ANA test performed.
Both were negative.

Does anybody know of anything else with these symptoms or other evidence that would have done?
Id love to help a little!

The ANA test can be falsely negative. Ask an attempt to check with proteinuria in renal function. In addition, the ANA and other antibodies as cytoplasmic Ro, La, Sm, RNP, and Jo-1, are blood tests that can out rule lupus.

We wish you a speedy recovery. I was diagnosed with lupus 18 years ago, and it took 10 years, until they know what was happening. The only time I had a butterfly rash (a sign of lupus, systemic lupus place) when I was pregnant and a miscarriage.
