[|Human|] I have been worked up for autoimmune dz....by previous physicians one who was internal med and one family practice....both friends. IM was thinking RA with elevated levels except Rfactor, family practice pinpoint touch and diagnosed casually with fibromyalgia...am new to wisconsin and am unsure which type of md I should see. Pain and mobility have decreased significantly in 6 months...previous docs aware....thought lupus would be final diagnosis...new info to me this week.
[|AI|]  Good evening. It seems that you are improving. Is it due to medications? Fibromyalgia is a very close mimic of autoimmune diseases. It is rather a diagnosis of exclusion when everything else is negative. You should consult a rheumatologist there to get to the exact diagnosis. If your autoimmune markers are negative, it is less likely that it is Lupus. Factor can be positive in 5 % normal population without causing any symptoms. I hope you don't have symptoms of Chat Doctor.
