I've been in the hospital 2x w/pneumonia like symptoms due to asthma i never had before symptoms are.chills, night sweats, wrist & foot pain now hiatal hernia with mild gerdes. my ct scans (3) show moving infilitrates and new nodules one 6mm the others .8cm & 1.3cm. i've seen RA dr. who says it looks like a symdrome pulmonary dr says the same..i've have alot of allergies. for 4mths i've been very sick smells really bothered me & I developed vocal cord dysfunction. the past 2 mths i have been feeling better even though ct scans don't show that. consulation with dr. said he thought i had boop or chronic eoscphillic pneumonia. what do you think?
We did the blood test for lupus, and many others none of the blood test point anywhere. they think by having the lung biopsy that it will help with a diagnosis
By my blood test protiens were high the treatment peginterfron 1shot a week ribavirin 6 pills a day.was reduce to 3 pills .Had gotten very sick after 2 months it was more from the hepc meds. that made me have them problems. Because having lupus my immune system was trying to fight hepc and the discord lupus. SLE is systemic lupus erythematosus. Ask your Ra for a lupus test it is done by having a blood test. Hope this helps a little.
How did they diagnosis HepC and what is the treatment? I never threw up but I do have a spot on my liver that is being looked at. they think it is calcified. sorry not familiar with terms what is sle?
I Was diagnosed with hepc Nov.06 started treatment in Feb.07 almost the same symptoms as you chills,sweats, hard time breathing,throwing up all the time was in hospital 2x. They thought I had pneumonia instead diagnosed with asthma never had asthma till now, they put me on albuterol. I had a endoscopy done im emptying 30 percent of food they think it could be from treatment.Felt lousy go to drs.next week.Have discord lupus for 20yrs. Now I have sle
they made me get vaccinated for pneumonia before commensing tx.....seems a common problem, easier to catch than folks think.
Hi no but u are the 3rd person to ask that ? I have been checked for lupus, wegners, churg-strauss but i need a lung biopsy to confirm any diagnosis. i'm just beside myself with the waiting game. waiting to see the dr. waiting for test results and scared of the results and treatment
