Chronic RA, Scheduled For Radiation Treatments For Breast Cancer, Lupus Test Positive With Low Numbers. Guidance?
Hi. I have RA for years now and was recently tested for lupus , just got results which are positive with low numbers.I was told 142. Since I am suppose to get radiation treatments for breast cancer , I was told that having Lupus would not qualified me for radiation.
