Hey....

I was dx with rheum arthritis at age 5, then UC hit at age 31 followed by sjogrens and who knows what else! I also have PCOS which I think is autoimmune. So, who has more than one autoimmune disease and has anyone gone to see an Immunologist? I wonder if it would do any good?

I have asthma and Crohn's. I started going to a rheumatologist a few years ago (due to all-over joint pain from Crohn's). He took an amazing history and I felt that he really understood the autoimmune issues well.
