I was diagnosed a year ago.I have lupus and thyroid issues.Once you have one autoimmune disease you are open up to others.I think back now and I note that my mother was always constipated.She used to do enemas and drink citrus if magnesium all the time.So mine could be heridetary.She was diagnosed with lupus in her 70’s.
