hello,
This is my first time posting and I was just wondering if there is
someone out there that has any insight...I am 21 years old and back
in Dec 2002 I came down with a bad inection and my SED rates were 98.
my doctor told me that there was no way that the infection sent them
that high. He said somthing else must be going on. It took until Mar
20th to get them to return to 25. Last Wed I found out they were back
up to 31 and now they just found out that I have positive ANA's in my
blood. The doctor told me that I must have a connective tissue
disease. I have not seen a rume doctor yet, but the thing that is on
my mind is that I have no signs of anything being wrong. I feel great
and I dont have any kind of pain anywhere. If anyone could help me
out or has had a similar expierence I would love to hear from you!

Thanks!!! :-)
