Felty's Syndrome

I was wondering if anyone has Felty's syndrome or has a family member that has been affected. It is a rare condition that is found in patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Thanks for your consideration.

Thankful

Dear Thankful,

I was unfamiliar with this syndrome, I had to look it up, so decided to post a quick definition for others. Sorry, but I do not know of anyone having it. We are here for you anytime you need us!

Hugs,

Hello Thankful,

I've never heard of Felty's syndrome while i've been on the site but Susan's added a great link for yourself to read and member's.

Felty's syndrome is also caused by the autoimmune neutropenia which is in felty's syndrome which is also to do with Lupus/SLE.

I don't think there's anything which Lupus in general is'nt involved with...here's a link also with information on Felty's syndrome and SLE.
