Helping you understand Our healthcare
Autoimmune diseases occur when the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s own tissues. Rheumatoid Arthritis primarily affects joints, while SLE can affect multiple organs including skin, kidneys, and joints.
Common symptoms include joint pain, swelling, stiffness, fatigue, skin rashes, fever, and sensitivity to sunlight. Symptoms may come and go in flares.
Diagnosis involves blood tests for specific antibodies (ANA, anti-dsDNA, RF, anti-CCP), inflammatory markers (ESR, CRP), and imaging like X-rays or ultrasounds of affected joints.
Treatment includes corticosteroids to reduce inflammation, DMARDs like Methotrexate and Hydroxychloroquine to slow disease progression, and sometimes biologics or immunosuppressants for severe cases.
Regular monitoring is essential, including blood tests (CBC, liver and kidney function), eye exams (especially if on Hydroxychloroquine), and assessments of joint function and disease activity.
