What sets off the autoimmune gene that per my doctor can cause different diseases and many forms
I have Rheumatoid Arthritis, my brother has Psorisis and I have a sister with Diabetes. My dad had gout, is this where the gene originated from and what sets this gene off? I was in an accident and was diagnosed not long after with RA.
Well, it's really not clear on how the autoimmune disease is triggered although it is accepted that genes and other environmental factors are associated with the disease. Individual family members with autoimmune diseases may inherit and share a set of abnormal genes, although they may develop different autoimmune diseases.
