Sometimes the immune system begins to attack the body’s own organs and tissues. Scientific director of the Institute of Rheumatology named following V. A. Nasonova and Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences Evgeniy Nasonov told “AiF” regarding signs that may indicate atypical behavior of the immune system.
“It is extremely difficult to recognize autoimmune diseases, and not only at an early stage, since their symptoms: muscle and joint pain, fatigue, depression, tachycardia, shortness of breath are also characteristic of other diseases and conditions, including post-viral fatigue,” – the doctor explained.
An additional difficulty is late diagnosis and overdiagnosis. When patients are given treatments based on autoantibodies in the blood, this can lead to complications and unwanted side effects, as well as increased costs for expensive drugs.
Genetic testing plays an important role in identifying the risk of developing autoimmune diseases. However, their cost makes mass screening ineffective. Therefore, doctors recommend examining people at risk – those who have close relatives suffering from autoimmune diseases. This will help more accurately identify genetic predisposition.
