Ask to be tested for the Epstein-Barr virus. I was tested for Mono & the Epstein-Barr virus. I was negative for Mono but the EB testing came back with results off the charts. I was infected for at least two years. If it is positive, you need loads of rest. My symptoms were weight loss, fatigue (I was falling asleep at work) and night sweats. Please ask for this blood test. Having this will make you prone to develop other conditions. Good luck.

I was just diagnosed 2 weeks ago. I have had symptoms since i was 15 that I can remember ... I am 32 now. I am RH negative. I was wondering the same thing - does Lupus and the RH factor of your blood have anything to do with each other.

I am Rh O- diagnosed with Lupus and Sjogrens, ITP. I googled to see if there could be a connection. Interesting feed.

If you are rh neg then you can only give the rh neg gene to your children. If your children are rh pos, then their father has rh pos blood. However your children carry and rh neg gene that is recessive. When there is an rh pos gene and an rh neg gene then the rh pos is always dominant. I think the marker in a blood test is B27. If you have that, you may come down with an auto immunine disease. And its not only lupus.

I hope you see this as your post was over a year ago. What a great question. Also, for those who had the Rhogam shot since it works through the immune system: A RhoGAM shot contains antibodies to Rh-positive blood, but not enough of them to cause harm to the fetal bloodstream. The mother’s body detects these antibodies, and reacts as though the immune system had already taken action against the “foreign” Rh-positive red blood cells.

I have Hashimoto and I’m O RH negative blood typo. My grandmother had Lupus and was also RH Negative.
Very interesting information. I wish the professional would research this more as now I have zero thyroid left though I’ve been on medication since I was 18 and I’m now 45. Where I once had a goiter for many years, I now have nothing as my body has completely attacked the gland until it no longer exists.
And all this while under so called medical support. I faced so many years of anxiety to the point that it affected my ability to even breath in normal rhythmic patterns. I couldn’t sleep, and I was trying to raise 3 children and work.
I pray someone finds a real solution rather than masking with meds while your body is under complete attack and your quality of life is weathered away.

What is the connection with alopecia and RH negative, I happen to have both. I was searching. Is it because our immune systems are always in fight mode?

I believe that too. Especially for RH- Our immune systems are hard on RH+ babies too.
Don't know if there are any studies on the effects of RH- people?
