Online Journals On Autoimmune Diseases

An autoimmune disease is a situation emerging from an abnormal immune return to a normal body part. There are at least 80 forms of autoimmune diseases.  Nearly any body part can be associated. Common symptoms consist of low grade fever and feeling drained. Usually symptoms come and go. The cause is generally unidentified. Some autoimmune diseases such as lupus run in families, and certain conditions may be prompted by infections or other environmental factors. Some natural diseases that are commonly considered autoimmune consist of celiac disease, diabetes mellitus type 1, Graves' disease, inflammatory bowel disease, multiple sclerosis, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and systemic lupus erythematous. The analysis can be difficult to determine. Analysis depends on the type and harshness of the condition.  Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and immune suppressants are regularly used.  No one is sure what causes autoimmune diseases. They do tend to run in families. Women - particularly African-American, Hispanic-American, and Native-American women - have a higher risk for some autoimmune diseases.There are more than 80 types of autoimmune diseases, and some have similar symptoms. This makes it hard for your health care provider to know if you really have one of these diseases, and if so, which one. Getting a diagnosis can be frustrating and stressful.
