My grandpa has lupus and he does intervenous antibiotics once a month and he feels like that really helps him only the other thing I think is just not working itself too hard

There is a certain type of lupus that your ANA doesn’t have to be positive for, but it’s just really hard to diagnose, but now my symptoms of kind of progressed to more MS symptoms so that’s what they think I have now
