Other autoimmune disorders

[Guest guest]

Hi,

Having one autoimmune disorder puts you at risk for developing other

autoimmune disorders. When your immune system is overactive and you have active

autoimmune disease symptoms or allergies, this immune stimulation tends to

induce or

exacerbate other autoimmune disorders. Healing the immune system helps both

conditions. Take care, Elaine

For those of you with more than one autoimmune disorder, do you find

that Graves triggers the other disorder. I have Crohn's Disease, and

I worry that the frequent bathroom visits are going to cause the

Crohn's to act up. Just curious.

My large extended family is riddled with autoimmune disorders and we find

that for those of us with more than one, they often flare in a cascading

pattern or sometimes all at once. Stress seems to exacerbate these

disorders, so when symptoms of any of the illnesses begin, we take strong

measures to balance our lives. We get lots of rest, meditate, pay attention

to our feelings, take supplements and do whatever else is necessary to

balance our lives and get our immune systems quietened.

Hi,

I'm 54 and have developed asthma. I have been tested for allergies in the

past, and they came up negative. I've always have non-allergic rhininitis, and

sinus infections. Are they all related to Graves? Is asthma an autoimmune

disorder?

Thanks

I assume you haven't made any changes in your life, like buying a pet

bird, etc. My father developed asthma in his early sixties after working

for about ten years as a supervisor in a slaughtering house.

Take care, Fay
