Hi all,

I have my first appointment with a Rheumatologist this coming Monday and wonder if there are certain key questions that I should be asking him. My anti double stranded dna is positive, and I have more than 4 of the 11 symptoms for Lupus....just looking forward to getting to the bottom of this.

Thanks
