Re: lupie invading your forum

Awyn, the last couple years, I've seemed to be going downhill in symptoms,
in spite of all my medications. It isn't a fast downhill, but I've noticed
it. The fatigue is worse, the pain is worse, my overall health seems
off-track, even though my blood tests don't show any abnormalities. I guess
in the back of my mind there was a little birdy whispering Lupus, that's why
I asked about symptoms and tests. And, yet, can I expect anything more?
I'm 61, have Clinical Depression, Rheumatoid Arthritis, FM and Chronic
Myofascial Pain, plus a Thyroid condition.

I may lurk awhile in the Lupus ng, to see what people are experiencing and
how they came to find out about their having Lupus. Thanks for asking.

G'day Nanny,
A series of tests and symptoms. I was flaring at the time I was
diagnosed and lit up the screen so to speak when it came to my tests.
And after two years of exhaustion and pain and bizarre symptom flare
ups, I have no questions about having this condition....just accepting
it.
Are you wondering if perhaps you may have some lupus qualities?
Write back!!
Cheers,
awyn
