I mean, there's like so many definitions but, even though I'm not a doctor, I'd say, if this hinders my immune system in any bad way, it's autoimmune. If I can't prevent infection, get frequent infection and/or struggle to heal infections - autoimmune

New studies suggest that it may be autoimmune, however, it is not conclusive.

The answer has always been no, but now some are considering it to be so
