Autoimmune disorders and burning wrists???

Help I was told that I might have an autoimmune disorder, my doc doesn't know what it is, but I got tested for RA because I have arthritis in my hips and a lack of joint space,and but the blood work came back negative for RA. Now my wrists are sore and burning like they are on fire. I have been iceing them day in and day out. Even blowing on then is comforting, could this be related? What profession deals with autoimmune disorders. Is it a Rumatologist?

The bood work did show that I an very anemic, and that I have a very low hemogobin (red bood count) but it also showed that I have antibodies attaching itself to my blood and weighing them down- that my blood is heavy.The doc says that it looks like an allergy to something, what does that mean?

An Allergy and Immunology specialist focuses his/her diagnosis/treatment on autoimmune diseases. It's likely that your body is flaring up from auto-antibodies in your system. Please go see your doctor right way so he could prescribe you the right medication. Good luck

The correct person to see is a rheumatologist. What you are describing could be an allergic reaction, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, or possibly many other things.
