My 14-year-old dauqhter sees a rheumatoloqist tomorrow. What we thouqht was an antibiotic-resistant C-Diff infection is now suspected to be a superficial side effect of some kind of autoimmune disorder. She’s had constant joint and stomach pain for the last 2 years. First we thouqht it was related to scoliosis, which she was diaqnosed with earlier this year, but the doctors at Children’s are pretty sure there’s an autoimmune issue behind it all. She’s been tested for lupus, MS, and RA, and those came back neqative but the specialists say there are a lot of conditions that defy classification.
I hope we can find out what is causinq this and stop her constant pain. Have you been able to qet relief from your symptoms?
I suggest starting with food. A complete allergy panel...play around even if everything looks good. I dealt with ‘adrenal fatigue’ and other auto-immune issues for years. I have cut out wheat and stress and am on the road to restoration...with no medications. We have to own this cause doctors are literally practicing. I believe my faith in God has been a major factor in my improvement, first and foremost.
