If I have one autoimmunne disease(pernicious anemia) am I more likely to have another autoimmune disease?

Yes, you are more likely to get hypothyroidism and or addison's. I have hypotyroidism and addison's, getting my b12 checked in a few weeks to make sure I don't have pericious anemia. The link below gives you some more info.

I've heard that if you have one autoimmune disease, you are at higher risk for developing another...I have Raynaud's Syndrome, but so far haven't developed any other diseases...knock on wood.
