Does anyone have family with other autoimmune illnesses?
As of now I have an aunt with lupus and 2 cousins with celiacs disease. I am the only one with M.S. I am curious if anyone else has similar illnesses in their family.

Hi there , I have a daughter with Crohn's disease and a father with something I have forgotten the name of its a auto immune disease to he basically fights his own white blood cells wich as far as I know means hie healing process is terrible . I have often wondered wether there is a connection there but when I asked my neurologist in France she didn't know . I then asked my daughter to ask the same in England and she got same reply ! All the best femke xx
As far as I know (and I only know one side of my family) I am the only one with either Asthma (also auto immune, i think) or MS. I had an uncle with Addison's disease (who died of it). No lupus, crohn's, ciliac etc Interesting topic, it makes sence that it could be related though. :-) Jas
