Hi ! and welcome! I'm curious what exactly does CVID stand for? I'm having chronic sinus and gastrointestinal symptoms that wont clear.I also have other auto-immune problems.I'm looking for answers for my problems and also to talk with others that can relate..:)

I'm currently being tested for a rainbow of auto immune problems. I do have ibs (though sometimes I wonder if there's more going on) and have been dx-ed with sjogren's. The reason they are testing for other things, is because of a mysterious rash that when I took medication for sjogren's it mysteriously went away but when I stopped it, the rash came back w/ a vengeance. I have chronic pain problems too and fibromyalgia. But now the doctor is wondering if there are other things that were swept under the rug or shrugged off. Nobody was ever able to give a proper diagnosis for the rashes. They ran allergy tests and things. You get the picture. Anyway, I'm just rambling at this point.

CVID is common variable immune disease or diffenciency. The test is so simply, they give you a pneumonia shot and test you on how you react to it. It is commonly misdiagnosed. If either of you have this it might explain the rashes since it effects the skin, mainly giving people malignant tumor like things on their skin, but I could see it effecting your ability to fight off a rash as well. I really hope you both find the answers, just knowing helps!
