I have EVERY symptom of Lupus. My doc sent me for bloodwork and had an ANA test done to see if I have Lupus. The ANA came back negative. However, for OVER A YEAR NOW, my white blood cell count has been high (13.3), my platelets have been high (416), my spleen, liver and left kidney have been swollen (ultrasound), and I have had a LOT of pain under my rib cage on both sides, especially my left side. If I stand or sit for too long, my stomach bloats out (esp when standing). The doctors around here don't seem too concerned about the constant pain I'm in, which has made me lose even MORE faith in doctors. Someone please help me!

My bloodwork results are as follows:
White blood cell (13.3)
Red blood cell (4.43)
Hemoglobin (14.4)
Hematocrit (42.7)
MCV (96.4)
MCH (32.6)
MCHC (33.8)

Absolute Lymphocytes (3963) - 29.8%
" Monocytes (705) - 5.3%
" Eosinophils (266) - 2%

I became a vegan to detox my body and after getting a colonoscopy everything seems clear. During this time, my acne has gotten a lot better, but now gotten a lot worse again

I know being vegan i may not be getting all the things i need in my diet so i took a lot of vitamins, supplements, etc.

I also work out A LOT so i need the protein, esp since i dont get it from meat fish or eggs anymore.

I dont know what to cut out from my diet so that I can remain vegan, have enough protein for my workouts and stay acne free. can anyone help me please? This has been going on way to long.

Recently I noticed that when I take in a deep breath, I get a pain in the left side of my chest. It is not intense, but it was sharp enough that it startled me. It is only noticeable when I breathe deeply. It feels somewhat like the pressure/tightness of an asthma attack without any difficulty of moving air. (Yes, I do have asthma but this does not appear to be related to it.)

Also, I have been noticing some sporadic tingling in my fingers and my face the last few days.

I have no idea if these two are related or not. I plan on seeing a doctor, but in the meantime I was wondering if anyone might have insight. Thanks.

I've heard that new studies show that eggs are the highest concentration of cholesterol because of their size but in the big scheme of things they are not high in cholesterol in a complete diet. Yes? No?

I just started taking Detrol La for OAB. Ever since I started my face has been breaking out horribly. The last time I broke out like this was when I was taking a small dose of steroids for a rash. Detrol LA has tolterodine in it. Is that a steroid? I can't find anything that just comes out and says "this is a steroid."
