Ensure you share the fact that prednisone helped.  That is an even clearer indication of auto-immune problems.  Good luck finding a rheumatologist that will work for you.

I was on Prednisone for my eye then alot of my symptoms got better...now I am on nothing again and I am having problems that are slowly coming back.  The only med that I am consistently is blood pressure meds been on that for 7 years though

Yes she is wrong.  And some people have lupus and never have a positive ANA.  You definitely need a new doctor as you certainly have some kind of auto-immune going on.  Are you on any drugs?  Even though my bloodwork was positive once and now negative I am being treated with plaquenil for Lupus.

I also get this weird spaced out feeling and memory loss.  I have  had my ANA tested but my rheumy said it was negative and would never change.  I think she is wrong about that.  I am currently looking for a new doctor.

Yes alot.  It started in 2003.  I had a 3 month long vertigo spell....that lifted somewhat then I started noticing the hives when I got cold.  Nothing was out of the ordinary(just random bouts of vertigo and hives when I got cold) until december of 2008.  I started noticing that I could not finish a shift at work.  I was sooo tired all of the time.  In april of 2009 i was walking in a store when suddenly my legs got heavy and I felt as if I could not lift them.  The next day I had double vision all day and then my eye turned red and became painful.  I eventually went to the doctor for my eye and was told that I had Uveitis.  The immediately tested me for auto immune issues and Ms but said that it was all negative.  The Uveitis lasted 10 months.  I also had, muscle twitching in legs, heaviness in legs, inability to walk very far at all, EXTREME fatigue, the list is ver long of the issues that I have.  I am still not better.  I do feel a bit better but i still cannot make it through the day without a nap, and I cannot walk distance at all.  The vertigo came back with a vengeance in April and I still have it today.  Now I am getting the rash in the sun.Thank you for any advice.
