I have too much antibodies in my body. It attacked my thyroid for a yr first i was over then under. My last two blood test have come back normal but i stil have too much atibodies still floating around my body. I was told it could stay in my body for ever or it could attack another part of my organs. What i dont understand is what is antibodies and what harm can they do. Thank you for your helpCan any one help/advice?
to put this simply, antibodies are your body's way of protecting you. they destroy/kill bad viruses and bacteria in your body and keep you healthy. in your case, you have too many antibodies which would cause them to attack internal organs.Can any one help/advice?
Definition of Antibody
Antibody: An immunoglobulin, a specialized immune protein, produced because of the introduction of an antigen into the body, and which possesses the remarkable ability to combine with the very antigen that triggered its production.
The production of antibodies is a major function of the immune system and is carried out by a type of white blood cell called a B cell (B lymphocyte). Antibodies can be triggered by and directed at foreign proteins, microorganisms, or toxins. Some antibodies are autoantibodies and home in against our own tissues.
The term ';antibody'; dates to 1901. Prior to that time, an ';antibody'; referred to any of a host of different substances that served as ';bodies'; (foot soldiers) in the fight against infection and its ill effects.
they're like you immune system, usually a good thing but can turn on you, as your doctor told you. your thyroid produces things like hormones, and could be seen as a threat to your body, since hormones are not naturally existing to your body. my friend a similar condition and would get weird lesions on her skin, almost like small pox or something weird and creepy. she eventually found out that tanning beds helped. i dont know if this will help you....
And probably the most important advice of all,
';Boy, you be sure you got on clean underwear, in case you're in an accident';.
antobodies protect you from deseases but thay can attack organs and you can get drugs to stop this from happening
