Newly diagnosed, Connective tissue disease. Anyone out there?
Hi everyone,
I’m a few weeks in from a seemingly vague diagnosis of connective tissue disease.
I have started taking hydroxychloroquinine and have quite a few other tests now scheduled including lung function, ecg, capilloroscopy etc.
I’m feeling apprehensive about what the future could hold so just popping in to say hi and would love to hear from others with a similar diagnosis.

Good morning @dufus welcome to the online community. Of course you will be feeling apprehensive with a new diagnosis of connective tissue disease. There have bee plenty of members here, former and current, who have a similar diagnosis.
I did you a quick search and came up with these:
The tests to mention are really good your rheumatologist is clearly dotting the i's and crossing the t's which is excellent practise.
My best wishes
Ellen.
