Can lupus or scleroderma be resopnsible for abdominal pain?
Recent blood tests indicate an autoimmune disorder, pointing towards scleroderma. I was advised this was in the early stages. I have experienced three seizsures in the last 2 yrs. and a bout of what was thought to be colitis that lasted for approx. 6-7 months. I am now experiencing a great deal of abdominal discomfort especially in the RUQ, RLQ as well to a lesser degree, LUQ. Blood tests, x-ray and ultra sound were negative, however the problem persists. Also suffering from intense fatique. Chronic neck/headaches present resulting from a vehicle accident 25yrs ago.
My aunt’s mom has scleroderma, and she can barely eat anything. My aunt has lupus and really doesnt have a problem with her stomach. I dont want to scare you but they are both pretty serious, dont fall behind on getting them checked out.
Hope this helps and good luck, i hope you dont have either.
