Do u think this could be Lupus??in may 2007 i noticed i was very fatigued. when i moved around my joints got very weak and i had to sit down. 1 night i got very weak and my face got numb and i had trouble breathing i wen 2 the ER and they just did i BP test and it was normal and told me 2 go home. I went 2 my doc the next day and noticed i was a little stiff in my ankles and spine, but i streched and it went away. the doc did a thyroid and mono test, all negative. Then my other joints were stiff, wristis,fingers,elbow,ankle,knees,toes,n... spine. also i was experincing tingling in hands and feet. i went 2 a neurologist and did a MRI of brain, it was normal. i saw all the M.D's at my docs office they didnt no. i was getting stomach infections like GERD,gastritis. i still get nause when i eat. i finally saw a rumotologist and did some exams and he thinks i my have sernegative spondylarthopthy he gave me some anti-inflamitories and order a spine x-ray and a HLA B27 blood work. plzz i am only 14i want some answer

It really does not sound like Lupus. It really does sound like spondylarthopathy especially with the gastric involvement. Trust your doctor. There are so many different seronegative spondyloarthropathies and each have different treatments and likely outcomes. Please don't sweat it. Just take it one moment at a time. Don't project into the future. Talk to your parents about it as much as possible.
I'll be thinking about you.

hi..I have Lupus and your symptoms don't seem right to me the stiffness could be fybromyalgia which will cause lots of fatigue and most people think they are going crazy before they get diagnosed because there is no blood test for it just the waiting game and a very good Dr. try not to panic it will only make you feel worse and the rhumetologist was the one who would have diagnosed you with Lupus so lets hope for the best , hope this helps.
