Looking at my lab results online, they indicate Lupus (though neither my GP nor Infectious Disease Doc have told me this yet - our follow up meeting is Friday.)

Any of you ever get a Lupus diagnosis?

Because of my swollen knee, I have been scheduled to get it aspirated, but couldn't get in right away, so that is scheduled for Thursday.

What could they possibly find that would help my diagnosis? I am inclined to cancel that if they are just going to tell me I have Lupus.

BTW I do have an LLMD appt. November 1.

See my response on your other post--it gives more detail. However, if your knee needs to be aspirated, I wouldn't put that off. If they say you have lupus, take it with a grain of salt until you see a good LLMD.
