After being misdiagnosed by one doctor as having rheumatoid arthritis, I found out fr. another rheumatologist that I didn't have RA. I have Crest, specifically three of the five symptoms. I was so glad not to have RA that I really didn't mind the relatively mild symptoms I was experiencing.
The thing is Crest is an autoimmune disease and I suspect that f. many of us it's not much of a problem until something serious goes wrong w. us physically and our immune system reacts by fighting our own tissues, our own bodies, instead of healing us.
This happened to me many years after my initial diagnosis of Crest and I'd love to hear fr. others what their experiences have been w. the condition.
