Guest guest Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 I just received some billing paperwork today from the hospital and I just realized I have a new diagnosis code. It is 710.9 Unspecified diffuse connective tissue disease. It used to be a 716 code which was an anthropathy code. Yet, last week when I was at the liver clinic it was seronegative ra. Does anyone else have this diagnosis? Or have ever had this diagnosis when on your path to getting treatment? ________________________________________________________________________________\ ____ Special deal for users & friends - No Cost.

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 , Mine is somewhat close... I've got Undifferentiated Connective Tissue Disease... Simply put, They don't know! I have symptoms of RA, Lupus and Raynaulds and they are now questioning Chrons.. My main issues revolve around the RA and Lupus... I feel the Doctors really aren't sure because the blood work doesn't show much (also seronegative), but all of the physical symptoms are screaming from the top of the mountain...

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Don't worry, . They're just not sure what your exact diagnosis is. They think you have a connective tissue disease but don't know which one.

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 Hi Bonnie! I have Reynaud's too!! I found a link I wanted to pass on to you, although you may have already read it or researched UCTD. Out of all that I have been reading, this one has been the most helpful! Good luck to you as well! I hate the unknowing part! I feel like I have been stumping the doctors for the past four years! Atleast they have been able to give medications that help somewhat! http://www.arthritis-treatment-and-relief.com/connective-tissue-disease-clinical\ -diagnosis.html --- Bonnie <tiredtaz@...> wrote: > , > Mine is somewhat close...
