Symptoms of Goodpasture Syndrome
Goodpasture syndrome is a rare and potentially life-threatening autoimmune disease. It causes buildup of autoimmune proteins in the kidneys and lungs that leads to damage of these organs. The disorder is named after Dr. Ernest Goodpasture, who first identified the syndrome in 1919. It’s estimated to occur in 1 out of 1 million people per year.

The symptoms of this condition generally occur slowly over several months or years. In certain cases, however, the symptoms develop quickly over just a few days. The general signs of the condition include:

Fatigue
Weakness
Loss of appetite
Depression
Nausea and vomiting
Weight loss
Pale skin
