Most people believe kidneys to be organs solely responsible for the filtration of blood and production of urine. But the truth is that the kidneys perform a host of vital functions in the body which include regulation of blood pressure, blood volume, and blood Ph.

ANA is a type of antibody test usually positive in auto immune disorders some types of arthritis, vasculitis etc. But the titre of the test makes it significant. It can be positive in low titres like 1: 40 or 1: 80 in the general population without any disease as well. So the report has to be clinically corelated and cause for positivity has to be found out to treat it.

I hope uh are keeping well and best wishes

Chronic respiratory diseases like bronchial asthma, bronchiectasis, copd, sarcoidosis and interstitial lung disease are vulnerable to repeated infections and multiple hospital visits or admission.
The main reasons for the increased susceptibility is altered lung defence, use of steroids in various respiratory conditions and multiple comorbidities like diabetes and coronary disease.
Patients should ideally be vaccinated for pneumococcal and influenza disease routinely.

Supportive treatment is necessary in covid to control the symptoms like fever, cough and cold and to improve immunity by multi vitamins. This is for patients who are stable. People who have moderate to severe covid that can lead to complications have a different line of management. So ye, allopathy has an important role.

Dear lybrate-user ji
greetings!
sle can be a real problem as it arises due to autoimmunity developed in the body. The steroid has given you a temporary relief and now it has a downside on the bones.
I can suggest you ayurveda treatment that might help you on a long term without causing any side effects. Please do come for a private chat with me anytime and I will guide your further on this.
Thanks!

Heart attack risk is 50 times higher in people with lupus, so patients with lupus should be extra vigilant against foods with known links to heart disease, such as red meat, fried foods, and dairy.
