TINA -MCTD

---

my symptoms actually have been showing up for years when I was younger but I never really knew what it meant whenever my chest was Turning bright red color. So, it actually started with my back pain. My back pain had started a couple of years ago so I went to the doctor and they did xrays said my ligament was stretched. When I went there they told me to see a physical therapist. Then the next year my back started hurting again it was a constant pain, and I thought I done the same thing again. So, I was sitting in class one day at Murray State University one night taking one of my classes this was October of 2016. My chest had turned bright red and a student had noticed in the bathroom, and it looks like someone had hit me and it was hot to the touch. I took videos of it on my Snapchat, and a picture and a video of it. Then I took it to my doctor the next day he tested me for my Smith antibodies, and rnp the Smith antibodies came back negative, but I was having symptoms of Lupus. Although my ana and rnp came back positive . That is when he sent me a referral to my rheumatologist where they did several test, and they tested some additional things like my CRP, and extra test for different things.
