Mimics Musculoskeletal
This systemic disease occurs due to the deposition of monosodium urate crystals in tissues, often leading to painful joint inflammation.
Gout
This condition is characterized by a reduction in hemoglobin concentration, leading to decreased oxygen-carrying capacity in red blood cells.
Anemia
These abnormalities in blood cell production and function are commonly seen in patients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis.
Blood Dyscrasia

COPD
This tick-borne illness can present with neurological, musculoskeletal, and cardiac symptoms, making diagnosis challenging.
Lyme's Disease

Myeloproliferative neoplasm

Secondary Osteoporosis

Superficial Venous Thrombosis

Diabetic foot ulcers
Unlike its primary counterpart, this type of bone disorder is caused by underlying conditions such as hematological diseases.
Secondary Osteoporosis
Along with iron deficiency, this process is one of the most frequent causes of anemia, disrupting iron homeostasis.
autoimmune activation
Cerebellar ataxia resembling MS is the most characterized neurological manifestation of this GI disorder
Celiac Disease
Unlike iron-deficiency anemia, this condition occurs when the body’s ability to use stored iron is impaired due to inflammatory and chronic diseases.
AI/ACD (Anemia of Inflammation and Chronic Disease

hyperuricemia
Hemolytic anemia, leukopenia, lymphopenia, and immune-mediated thrombocytopenia are common hematological abnormalities in patients with this disease.
SLE/Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
This syndrome typically develops years after a diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis but can, in rare cases, appear before RA is formally diagnosed.
