I have IgG4 disease too,from UK. I'm 45 now and had since 2000. I think I was nearly one of the first diagnosed...at least in UK! Now it's becoming a bit more known about. I have IgG4 pancreatitis, diabetes and chronic kidney disease.
It must have been really frustrating knowing something is wrong but couldn't pin it down for so long. A very productive and strong man...Love the positive attitude...
Hi, May I ask you what were your symptoms? I have lymph nodes enlarged but they hurt and make me swell. And more strange symptoms. IgG4 is not known in my country. Thank you. May I ask you who's your doctor who diagnosed you in Germany? Thank you!
@@lillyrocks2011 Hi, of course you can. IGG4 started when I was about 15 or 16 with an autoimmune pancreatitis. In the 14 years since then I got inflammation and fibrosis on - who would have thought - my pancreas, my liver, my kidneys, my orbital glands and my salvitary glands as well as my lymph nodes. But only the pancreas really bothers me, because the disease could cause a lot of fibrosis before ist was found. The rest of the inflammation was not noticable until 3 years ago. In 2021 my orbital glands started swelling to about 10 times their size and pressed my eye. I threatened to go blind, so the doctors started to do tests. They soon shifted to my pancreas because of some bloodwork, I presume . They did an MRI and rushed me to the hospital afterwards because the scarring looked like cancer. So I was in hospital when the doctors found out, it wasnt cancer but IGG4-RD. It was a gastroentrologist who diagnosed me in the end, because my pancreas is the organ most affected. He referred me to a rheumatologist and that is where have been getting treated since then.
Having watched this video, there was no mention about patients diet, did any of the patients avoid any foods as a result if igG4 diagnosis? Since the condition is an inflammatory condition.
I have had IgG4 disease for 20 years. Nobody has ever particularly mentioned diet in regards to it... just as a result of having exocrine pancreatic insufficiency from it and diabetes too.
But I don't understand very well, how to arrive to the diagnosis?? If its so difficult and the symptoms so hard to make a gathering. I don't think that in any country the doctors could arrive to the right diagnosis . What kind of doctors should we consult? Thank you
I’ve had it for 15 years. Primarily affects my pancreas. I think my dad also had undiagnosed igg4 affecting lungs, kidneys and pancreas. He had pseudo tumors in lungs and one was fibrotic. In a flare now. Such a sneaky disease that makes you feel like crap.
Hi how are you doing? I am new to this disease. My igg4 is super super high 😢 I am 35 yrs old women. I am very scared of this disease and looking for someone to talk about it 😔 🙏
Some doctors don't like to study "difficult, strange" symptoms so many people will be without the right diagnosis for a long time or maybe they'll never get the right diagnosis. It's easier to diagnose fibromyalgia so the doctors don't have to study, investigate the patient. 😢
A ' new 'disease.....?? . this allopathic discussion , although I am glad they at least now see what's happening in the body, takes no account of the trigger.....some toxin / to toxins....both have kidney affectation.....perhaps GMO in food ? Although steroid suppression of the immune response is a battle field measure we should be grateful for, it's no long term solution.
My brother is suffering from this Igg4 disease it effected his kidney, he loss his weight, Firstly we do not know whats the problem and we went to AIIMS Delhi, my brother was treated under Dr.Nitish. For delaying with getting reports and Doctor’s appointment my brother got stone(13mm)in kidney.My family were so worried for my brother and the disease.And after we decided to change the hospital and now he is getting treated by Dr.Abhishek Patil in Manipal hospital Bangalore, The doctor prescribed him Tocilizumab Actemra(it’s a injection)/Mycophenolate (its’ a tablet).The doctor recommend him to take any one of them either injection or tablet, we asked him and he told with his best to take injection.

Hi how are you doing today?
Having watched this video, there was no mention about patients diet, did any of the patients avoid any foods as a result if igG4 diagnosis? Since the condition is an inflammatory condition.
We will ask and get back to you.
I have had IgG4 disease for 20 years. Nobody has ever particularly mentioned diet in regards to it... just as a result of having exocrine pancreatic insufficiency from it and diabetes too.
@@deeb4731 - Many thanks for the update.
What is your opinion on IVIG infusions.? Do
they differentiate between the 4 different IgG antibodies in infusions?
Anyone have a TLDR of this? I’m new to the igG4 discussion.
But I don't understand very well, how to arrive to the diagnosis?? If its so difficult and the symptoms so hard to make a gathering. I don't think that in any country the doctors could arrive to the right diagnosis . What kind of doctors should we consult? Thank you

Agree. Found out I’m full of mold. Long-term, multiple exposures. So toxins big player. Prednisone destroys my body.
