Amazing but not for all: with ~38 trillion bacteria and ~30 trillion cells (latest Google estimates) + innumerable metabolites all interacting in cross-talks, I suspect minimal quantities of nasty bugs able to trigger major flares in #autoimmunediseases will continue to be undetectable by the labs.

It's well established there is a spectrum of potential risk of polygenic autoimmunity in humans. We develop actual #autoimmunediseases either because of unknown inborn errors or due to environmental and lifestyle factors.

We often share overlapping symptoms and / or similar inflammation traits...

Pregnancy brings unique challenges for people with autoimmune diseases – but with early planning, pregnancy outcomes can be greatly improved Advances in research and medicine have given doctors helpful tools to assess a person’s individual risk and to help prepare them for pregnancy.

Fiction and characters can say more about life than the life itself! In all the stories of "The Blind Spot" there are fragments of real lives but fiction allows me to better share something we need to know about the causes and symptoms of #autoimmunediseases, especially in relation to childhood.

How close are we to curing autoimmune diseases, really? Autoimmunity is when your immune system attacks your own body. There's no cure—only symptom management. Plot twist: a cancer drug is making people with autoimmunity symptom-free.

Interesting but classifying fibromyalgia #fm as an #autoimmunediseases doesn't make much difference to me

My lived experience of #fm consistent with idea that it results from hypometabolism. If this is addressed, symptoms (overlapping #sjogrens #hypothyroidism #ted with antibodies etc etc) recede.
