What Causes Hair Fall And Sore Throat Along With Migraine?
Hi I have had doctors say I have Lupus and other say I don t. I have 5 out of 10 symptoms. I have so much more sore throats all the time, hair falling out, sores in my nose and mouth, fibromyalgia, migraines to name a few also a positive ANA. Should I say forget it and not see another doctor or see one. My daughter does have Lupus and she is a lot worse than me and she is only 35 years old.

Hello,
Rather than being in dilemma, in my clinic I recommend an advance evaluation with anti-dsDNA and anti-Smith antibodies evaluation for the confirmation of lupus and further care in this regard.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care

Dr Purva Patel, General & Family Physician
