K/c/o multiple autoimmune d/i

I am on Sulfasalazine and HCQ for knee pain and swelling (ACCP and ANA positive,RA factor negative) for past 1 year. I also have other autoimmune d/o like Morphea, alopecia areata and on treatment(antihistamines BD) for chronic urticaria (ASST positive). I tested positive for COVID on Sept 14th. Today I performed RAT to end isolation and it's still positive. Is it due to my altered immune status and when should I get tested again to end isolation?

Back pain/neck pain

I have tested HLAB27 positive. Rheumatologist said this is arthritis and prescribed some more tests. After consulting him i checked to find that he has also prescribed Hepatitis B surface antigen and Mantoux/PPD/Tuberculin test. I do not understand why he has advised tests for Hepatitis B and Tuberculosis. Further, he suggested to take Saaz 500mg twice a day, etoricoxib 90 mg once a day and gas tablet. I want to ask If I am not having severe pain (as I'm doing exercises) then is pain killer mandatory? Can't i take only saaz 500 mg (and gas tablet?)

Autoimmune Disorder

There are multiple visible issues like hyperpigmentation, allopecia that over the course of time have been affiliated to autoimmune disorders; LPP for skin issues and allopecia for hair patch loss. However, I believe the problem to be more severe where it might be affecting my digestive system and asthama as well. Hence wanted to consult someone who is an expert in treating autoimmune problems. What is triggering this autoimmune response and what is the level of this problem along with its treatment options. I am very confused as a dermatologist only looks at skin issues, pulmonolgist looks at asthama issues but nothing who acts on the basic reason for all these problems.

Pain in bones

Hello Respected Doctors I am a gastritis patient. My concern is that I feel a sudden pain in my leg bone and related area. Although I am confused if this pain is in bone or muscle around it. Pain intensity is not high it comes and goes. I checked my vitamin D and I am deficient. Does Vitamin D deficiency caused that. Or this problem is serious??? PS- My vitamin B12 level is normal and I am an obese person
