Each time - with a different Dr.- I asked what this means and they would say "it's your immune system fighting against itself; that's why you have MS, Lupus, Raynauds, Sjogrens, Osteoarthritis, Dupetryns, etc,etc,etc. That is as far as the explanations went. One day I was in the library and picked up this book. It totally explained all of these and how and why they are caused by immune cells fighting against each other - i.e. AutoImmune Disease. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has been diagnosed with any of the above problems. You'll understand what and why you have something.I immediately ordered it from Amazon. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Recently diagnosed *by S***G on September 25, 2010* Less than a month ago, after several years of seemingly unconnected, rather brief medical events, an opthalmologist, having just completed post-op followup of removal of two cataracts for me, expressed concern about my extremely dry eyes during her months of seeing me. I had no idea I had dry eyes!She recommended testing for Sjogren's and ANAs. The Sjogren's was negative but the ANA was strongly positive and that urged me to a rheumatologtist. Those tests and his 2 hour interview along with my medical history and he *named* it: an autoimmune disease, currently labeled as an indeterminent connective tissue disease, most probably Lupus, maybe Scleroderma. More tests. And this week I see him again for a more definitive diagnosis and we'll go from there.In the meantime I read reliable sites online (Johns Hopkins, Brigham and Women's, NIH) and, among others, read Dr. Lahita's book. The first section defines autoimmune diseases as a category - very helpful to this lay person. The second section, really the body of the book, looks at several in that category and reviews both general and specific information about each. The third and last section focuses on possible treatments. And I really liked the bibliography in which Dr. Lahita comments of the merits of various reading selections. This led me to more readings and I feel much more enlightened as I prepare for this week's appointment with the rheumatologist. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Autoimmune sufferes must read! *by S***1 on September 12, 2009* My 26 year old sister-in-law recently had a stroke. She suffers from a first misdiagnosed, which is now an undiagnosed autoimmune disease. It is too bad her doctors didn't read this book. She was sent home by a hospital, general doc. & a neurologist after suffering 2 of the soon to be 5 infarctions. They said it was probably a sinus infection and a migrane. Please be aware of THICK BLOOD (blood clots) Autoimmune disease sufferers. You must be your own doctor with such a mysterious disease. I wish I knew more...the doctors knew more...before the bloodclot/stroke. This book opens your eyes to a lot of typical, but not too common things for women and autoimmune disease.
