When your body is attackedperhaps by a virus or germs on a nail you stepped onyour immune system defends you. It sees and kills the germs that might hurt you. But when the system doesn't work right, this process can cause harm. Immune cells can mistake your body's own cells as invaders and attack them. This "friendly fire" can affect almost any part of the body. It can sometimes affect many parts of the body at once. This is called autoimmunity (meaning self-immunity). What Causes Autoimmunity?

Diseases We Treat Osteo Arthritis Rheum ... Home Scleroderma Defining Scleroderma Scleroderma is a chronic disease of the connective tissues (skin, ligaments, cartilage and bone), which results from an overproduction of the protein collagen. The terms "sclero" or "sclerosis" refer to the process of hardening, particularly due to excessive growth of fibrous tissue. "Derma" refers to the skin. Scleroderma causes a hardening of the skin and other tissues or organs. Because connective tissue is found throughout the body, scleroderma also can affect internal organs. The disease is very individualized and can range from mild to life-threatening. When the skin is affected, symptoms are visible. When internal organs and structures are affected but the skin is not, the disease may not be apparent. Nonetheless, involvement of internal organs and tissues signals a more severe form of scleroderma. The precise cause of scleroderma is not known. It is considered an "autoimmune disease," which means that the body's immune system reacts against itself, causing an overproduction of collagen. Some people appear to have a genetic predisposition to developing the disease, but it is not directly inherited. Environment also may play a causal role. Despite the body's uncontrolled production of collagen, scleroderma is not malignant (cancerous).

A Holy Christmas A Holy Easter Connections For nearly thirty years I have been battling a variety of symptoms with fatigue and pain being the most familiar 'friends.' Occasionally I've had the 'butterfly rash' of lupus with patchy rashes on my elbows; sores in my mouth; mild fevers; easy bruising; difficulty swallowing; terrific abdominal cramping (across my diaphragm and below); allergic reactions; and so on. I decided to put this page together for myself, so that I could find information quickly when I need it and so that I could send friends and family to those sources as well. I have an autoimmune disorder of some kind that is 'not yet diagnosed.' I have a positive Rheumatoid Factor but a negative ANA. My sed rate is always elevated, the level varies. I was told in 1994 that research was still ongoing and that tests for several different conditions were still 'in the realm of clinical research' and that I would not likely know definitely for 5 - 10 years what was wrong with me. A very frustrating situation indeed. Essentially, I was told that, on the balance of probabilities, I most likely had UCTD or MCTD (Undifferentiated or Mixed Connective Tissue Disease) or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.

Home Find a Doctor INAModel INAView ... Consult the Nurse Breast Implants Potential Breast Implant Complications Undergoing any surgical procedure may involve the risk of complications such as the effects of anesthesia, infection, swelling, redness, bleeding, and pain. In addition, there are potential complications specific to breast implants. (For complete information on the complications associated with Saline Filled Breast Implant surgery click here These complications include: Deflation/Rupture Breast implants deflate when the saline solution leaks either through an unsealed or damaged valve or through a break in the implant shell. Implant deflation can occur immediately or slowly over a period of days and is noticed by loss of size or shape of your breast. Some breast implants deflate (or rupture) in the first few months after being implanted and some deflate after several years. Causes of deflation include damage by surgical instruments during surgery, overfilling or underfilling of the breast implant with saline solution, capsular contracture, closed capsulotomy, stresses such as trauma or intense physical manipulation, excessive compression during mammographic imaging, umbilical incision placement, and unknown/unexplained reasons. You should also be aware that the breast implant may wear out over time and deflate/rupture. Deflated breast implants require additional surgery to remove and to possibly replace the breast implant. Capsular Contracture The scar tissue or capsule that normally forms around the breast implant may tighten and squeeze the breast implant and is called capsular contracture. Capsular contracture may be more common following infection, hematoma, and seroma. It is also more common with subglandular placement (behind the mammary gland and on top of the chest). Symptoms range from mild firmness and mild discomfort to severe pain, distorted shape, palpability of the breast implant, and/or movement of the breast implant. Additional surgery is needed in cases where pain and/or firmness is severe. This surgery ranges from removal of the breast implant capsule tissue to removal and possibly replacement of the breast implant itself. Capsular contracture may happen again after these additional surgeries.

University of Illinois - Urbana/Champaign Carle Cancer Center Hematology Resource Page Patient Resources Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome Home Factor V Leiden Antiphospholipid Syndrome General Clotting Information ... Protein S deficiency The antiphospholipid antibody syndrome, also known as Hughes Syndrome, is a disorder characterized by multiple different antibodies that are associated with both arterial and venous thrombosis (clots). There are three primary classes of antibodies associated with the antiphospholipid antibody syndrome: 1) anticardiolipin antibodies, 2) the lupus anticoagulant and 3) antibodies directed against specific molecules including a molecule known as beta-2-glycoprotein 1. Historically, antiphospholipid antibodies were first noted in patients who had positive tests for syphilis without signs of infection. Subsequently, a clotting disorder was associated with two patients with systemic lupus erythematosus in 1952. In 1957 a link between recurrent pregnancy loss and what is now called the lupus anticoagulant was established. Ultimately, the lupus anticoagulant was further described in 1963 and in 1972 the term lupus anticoagulant was given. In 1983, Dr. Graham Hughes described the association between antiphospholipid antibodies and arterial as well as venous thrombosis. There are two main classifications of the antiphospholipid antibody syndrome. If the patient has an underlying autoimmune disorder, such as systemic lupus erythematosus, the patient is said to have secondary antiphospholipid antibody syndrome. If the patient has no known underlying autoimmune disorder, it is termed primary antiphospholipid antibody syndrome.

Defective Products: Breast Implants: Fact v Fiction in the Harvard and Mayo Clinic Studies By Richard Alexander The "Harvard Nurses Study," officially titled Silicone Breast Implants and Connective Tissue Disease, was conducted by researchers at Harvard Medical School, the Harvard School of Public Health, and Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston. The study, first presented at the October 1994 meeting of the American College of Rheumatology and published June 22, 1995 in The New England Journal of Medicine, claims that there is no association between silicone breast implants and connective tissue disease. This study is seriously flawed and raises serious ethical issues: Two of the authors of the study, Dr. Graham A. Colditz and Dr. Matthew H. Liang, admitted under threat of perjury that they were paid consultants of breast implant manufacturers. Dr. Colditz admitted under oath that he knew Dow Corning had donated $5 million to Brigham Women's Hospital.
