Hey, guys,
So, my neuropathy has been getting worse in recent months and my doctor decided to start looking for autoimmune causes for the progression. For a little background: I have pernicious anemia (which did NOT cause the original damage, fun fun fun), asthma, psoriasis, and allergies, and I get serious flareups after I get sick. All of my autoimmune tests have been normal, except for the fact that I apparently have low-serum IGA deficiency. My doctor (Weiner at Columbia) says this can cause autoimmune stuff, but besides this test my autoimmune panels have been sparkling! So he thinks it may all still be a coincidence, but at this point I don't see how. Does anyone have a similar case? My docs kinda rely on me to come to them with ideas at this point and if I don't bring things up nobody will.
