Anyone’s child had this? What was the outcome if so?

My dd has had a lot of blood work done as they thought she may have lupus, but it was negative across the board. They have since moved on to thinking she has a autoinflammatory disease and has undergone full genetics for that.

Hi my DD now 13 was diagnosed with Hypergammaglobinaneamia when she was 6 whilst having surgery for a colostomy. I had been whinging on for a couple of years as she had frequent infections coughs, colds etc but the biggest problem was persistent diarrhoea but my concerns were ignored.She has a rare chromosome abnormality so does have severe learning disabilities.

However she has since had 2/weekly subcutaneous infusions given by me and has been so much better
and she just accepts little needles in her thighs as part of her life 🤗. She is so good. Sorry stealth boast.
Good luck, try not to worry too much and good luck.

Thank you both, I’m not sure what they’re expecting to diagnose but hopefully it’s nothing!
