I took ana test again last week because of continous fatigue, rashes on the leg. ANA Test is now strongly positive with high titer . Pattern is same as last - dense fine speckled . Do i have a deadly autoimmune disease.?

"Mujhe HLA-B27 positive hai. Ye problem mujhe 2023 se hai, lagbhag 2 saal ho gaye hain. Meri kamar me dard rehta hai aur chalne me dikkat hoti hai. Kabhi-kabhi pair aur joints me bhi sujan ya stiffness ho jata hai. Main jana chahta hoon ki mujhe kya karna chahiye? Kaun se exercise, yoga ya treatment best rahenge? Aur kaun si cheezein avoid karni chahiye? Kripya simple language me samjhayen. Main chahta hoon ki dard thoda kam ho aur normal life jee saku

Hi, It's been 15 years since my symptoms initially appeared, first cervical pain, then back pain and every year a new pain gets added. I have medication resistant pain, or they don't work now properly as they gave me more pain so i have to change pain medication every other day. Recently from one year have developed digestive issues, so the medicines are even more of a hit and miss now. I have taken ketamine and lidocaine treatment also. Needless to say nothing worked. With all these things i have also the usual suspects- anxiety, depression, bpd. I have changed doctors so many times and i think no one beleives me and now recently last doctor thinks i have drug seeking behaviour. Well offcourse i do, i want to be in less pain. I know i should do the usual things - exercise etc but i consider enough achievement to get to work every day. So what is something that i can do

Can repeated use of soaps cause nail pitting? I have been using soaps quite frequently for washing my hands since covid. And sometimes, I feel the dryness caused by it might have triggered nail pitting. And whenever I walk 2-3 kilometres, my fingers,palm and feel get slightly swollen which gets normal in 1 hour. HsCRP was below 1 and ear was also 8 in the normal range.

I did a complete blood test, which included ANA. It shows ANA ( Elisa) positive, value 89.93!!

Hi Doctor, My brother-in-law has been experiencing severe neck and back pain for the past 15 days. He recently tested HLA-B27 positive and is now unable to lift his hand also due to the pain. Could this be related to the HLA-B27 result? What should be the next steps for diagnosis and treatment?
