Study finds possible lupus cause, way to reverse disease

Күн бұрын

A new study suggests researchers have found a cause for lupus and a possible way to reverse the chronic autoimmune disease that affects more than 1.5 million Americans. Until now, its cause has largely been unknown and existing treatments have been seen as unreliable. Dr. Jaehyuk Choi, associate professor of dermatology and biochemistry at Northwestern Medicine, joined CBS News to discuss the findings.

Please give us patients a LUPUS clinic so we dont have to go to a dozen different places to see different doctors...Chronic fatigue syndrome comes with Lupus. So everytime I physically stress myself I am bedridden for days..this "Lupus Clinic" would help me and others with Lupus so much more than a new drug.

So, with Lupus you may see many specialists but the appts are at will and can be done separately. It is not like a transplant or CA patient who has appt after appt ALL day long. You can go see Rheum one day, Pulm one day, etc. I have 3 Autoimmune diseases including Lupus. I work a FT job (physical healthcare job), often OT and manage my appts. I think a Lupus clinic is unnecessary. There are many more debilitating diseases that deserve clinics like this. Autoimmune is not one of them.

@@beckyl306I'm glad you are doing so well and so functional, but you seem clueless and heartless for someone with Lupus AND who works in healthcare? Most people see tons of clueless doctors before getting diagnosed. And even after that it can still be a struggle. My husband died from complications of Lupus. The biggest one being 10 of his 11 prescriptions are now known to be bad for the heart. Almost all of his specialist were clueless about Lupus and autoimmune disease in general, but they were all super adamant that the Lupus wasn't the cause of his various issues or his death. Even though they didn't really have any other answers. Complete stupidity and arrogance. I could have clocked the heart surgeon who told me that Lupus had no impact on my husband's death. This was nearly 20 years ago, I hope it's gotten better over time, but I doubt it's improved much. So yes a clinic with specialists all in one place and up-to-date on autoimmune conditions would help since Lupus can attack any system in the body, but the specialist seem to be clueless about this fact.

Water fasting and cutting out all processed foods does wonders to heal the body of disease. But big pharma doesn't make billions of dollars off of that, so it's never studied. No, they want develop a pill that you'll have to take the rest of your life. And suffer all the side effects. So then you have to take other pills for the side effects.

Long story short, I haven't needed medication for my disease for the last 3 years. Before this, i tried so many things. Healthy eating, and getting enough sleep is also very important, and avoiding stress,(easier said than done!)do everything you can to remain healthy.

The most encouraging thing he said was that they think they found targeted access to interrupt the process of lupus "very far upstream". A lot of medicines that don't work in autoimmune intervention affect mainly the downstream symptoms. If he was using that term literally then there is hope that medicine now has a deeper understanding of the lupus disease process, to even know what/where upstream is and how to disrupt it

I have a different disease that's in the same category as lupus (autoimmune disorders), and in my opinion, they're caused by chronic inflammation and the body attacking its own tissues. We just have to figure out what. In my case, it was a food (gluten), so it was pretty easy to treat. I've also noticed a pattern of severe stress triggering autoimmune disorders, too. I don't know if we can cure them, but we can definitely treat them.

@shakeyj4523 23 күн бұрын

@@Hollyucinogen It's never just one source, which is why it's hard to pin things down. The best saying I have heard, is that Genetics is the gun, and the environment pulls the trigger. So if you have the genes for you autoimmune disorder, just about anything could trigger it. It could be a virus (most likely in MS and Lupus) or another autoimmune disease that you have (If you have one, the chances vastly increase that you will have another). Inflammation is a symptom. Unfortunately finding what causes autoimmune diseases in full is very, very difficult, and I would caution you about guessing.

If you have an autoimmune disease, it's an immune system issue. Higher doses of vit. D3 NOT D2! (40,000-50,000 IU must take with 100 mcg k2 per 10,000 IU vit D, so 400-500mcg k2) Vitamin D modulates the immune system bringing it into balance. It's also anti-inflammatory. Magnesium is important as well to make the D3/k2 work. Also, eliminate gluten and anything causing leaky gut. Autoimmune issues always arise after leaky gut is present. Watch Dr. Berg on KZfaq. He has videos on autoimmune/leaky gut. A drug isn't going to do what vitamin D does. Instead, they are more likely to block the bodies natural function which makes symptoms less however may not correct the problem. Good luck to anyone suffering.💓

He said the cause, just didn't explain in detail because viewers don't understand anyway. They found that interferon and AHR/JUN are like two opposing controllers that determine the abundance of the immune cells that, when they are too plentiful, cause lupus. Interferon makes the cells more abundant, and AHR reduces the number of cells, so the idea is to treat lupus with drugs that target one or both of these controllers in the hopes of correcting the imbalance.

As someone who holds my lupus in remission by making extremely healthy choices, this gives me hope but also gives me pause. I’m skeptical they’ll be able to turn it off.. and keep it off.. unless it’s a lifetime drug or unless it’s combined with a low-tox, careful lifestyle. I don’t know why that is never a part of the conversation in formal medical settings, only alternative medicine.

what caused the imbalance? lupus and sarcoidosis have always been presented as a "we dont really know" condition. so if chemical imbalances are triggering flare ups... does the study dive deeper into the imbalances?

I've been struggling with this since my teenage years im in my late 20's now and it really affected my daily life, but always kept faith in Allah and He granted me patience to deal with it, as for treatments i have tried topical creams but thats about it, i try to stress less since i believe it was the main trigger but i find myself stressing again every now and then which doesnt help. As for my sleep it is literally upside down since i work at night but i get the minimum 7 hours at least, i try to sunbathe during the day but i cant do it for too long since i gotta sleep, but im pretty sure im low on vitamine D. As for my diet i always tried to eat healthy but never really followed one but subhanAllah this is the second time this week someone recommended an anti inflammatory diet so i'll take that as a sign from Allah and follow it inshaAllah, i really appreciate your advice jazakAllahu khayran!

I hope now that they found blood biomarkers, patients will stop being gaslit, and psychopathologized over "past trauma causing autoimmune disease" when more likely, it was an infection, including asymptomatic ones, that triggered the pathphysiological changes in the immune system. Viruses can cause autoimmune disease.

How have you been able to determine that the chemical imbalance is a cause of lupus rather than a result of lupus? I would love more details. Correlation is not causation. It's the same issue as amyloid plaques in dementia. Treatments targeting those plaques have held up research for decades and wasted billions.
