Condition: Non Specific Autoimmune Disease

A nonspecific autoimmune disease is an autoimmune disease that cannot be fully identified or diagnosed, and does not meet the criteria of known autoimmune diseases. An autoimmune disease is a condition in which the body’s immune system, which protects the body against harmful substances like bacteria and viruses, triggers its defenses incorrectly and causes damage to cells and tissues. Autoimmune diseases include type 1 diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and multiple sclerosis. Nonspecific autoimmune disease symptoms often include an overall feeling of malaise or sickness, a low fever, and tiredness. The cause of autoimmune diseases isn’t understood. Nonspecific autoimmune disease may be chronic — which means it can’t be cured — but symptoms may be managed with medication and lifestyle changes.
