Is there any test to find out if I have autoimmune disease? “Women are more likely to get a whole host of autoimmune diseases than men are, including multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and lupus.”

I think there is something to what you say about an overly strong immune system having both an up and a down side.
