Misdiagnosis

I have had Benlysta, Hydroclorquine, Methotrexate, and Predisone for over 7 years. I was diagnosed with SLE. Last month the doctor who replaced my Rhuemtoidlogist told me I DO NOT have Lupus and all tests have been negative. I have grown incredibly sick over this time. I cannot find anyone or anything on people being treated for Lupus who did not have an autoimmune disease. Is anyone out there? Help?

  1. I'm so sorry this is happening. As I talk with other lupus warriors, It seems to be a trend these days that people are being told because their numbers are good they no longer have lupus. It is such a dangerous practice that is hurting so many. Is there anyway you can find another Rheumatologist or talk to the current one to find out why now all of a sudden you don't have lupus? Did they discontinue all of your medications? ~Racquel~lupus.net team member
