Lupus is a chronic autoimmune disease. It can cause inflamation in the joints, rashes, fatigue, some flu-like symptoms, and multipe other organ and blood problems. It can affect any part of the body and is highly individualized, so no two cases are ever exactly alike. I decided that there needs to be more personal SLE experiences up, so I've started my own video journal about my experience with Lupus. Any comments, or if anyone wishes to chat, my AIM and YIM is MonkeyPantyhose. If I'm on, I'm open for chatting. :)

Hey
I would like to thank you for being so strong to take the enitiative to come out and share your experience with lupus. You are not alone with this disease. I have been diagnosed with discocud Lupus for 8 years now and every day I wake up is a reminder of how tough of a day I will have. Like you.......I was depressed the first few years. getting used to the fact but I learned to think for myself and there was a time I kinda got selfish and just focused on my health

Wow, you are such a ... ( 7 months ago by PlayaJattXP)

Wow, you are such a bright girl. I am 20 yrs old MALE and recently been diagnosed with Lupus also. It's been really tough for me and my family. I totally agree with the statement "If you have lupus, you've got to have a good sense of humor" to make the best out of everyday. I want everybody out there with lupus or any other chronic illness to know that cure is not far away.

Hi WillowMagic! This is WillowDove. I just started my Lupus Vlog. I'm 40 yrs old and just found out I have Lupus. I've been ill for many years and they just figured it out. I'm pretty sure I've had this since I was a child. I can trace it back to when I was 12 yrs old. Anyway, I hope you are doing well and that you make more vids. Good for you for posting this! Hang in there!

Oh Thank you for posting this!
It took about 14 months of SERIOUS looking by my wonderful doctor (who was reading until wee hours of the morning so many nights) to find out I had lupus. I was diagnosed with Lupus SLE, Sjogrens, RA (and a few other fun things that I got with the "Fabulous Package Deal") in 1998 at age 27. My platelets were about 58 at the time. I had never even HEARD of lupus before that.

...2 of 2 posts...
It took me about 4 years before I "truly" came to accept it.
My lifeline has been that I have found new things that I CAN do. I may not be able to live the original dreams that I had planned for my life, but I have dreamed NEW DREAMS now.... And I am happy!
There is life with Lupus and you are going to be one of the success stories! I LOVE your sense of humor and look forward to updates from you!
Please PLease PLEASE keep posting!!

Hi brave girl. I'm ... ( 2 months ago by rogerscoco)

Hi brave girl. I'm 55 years old now and have had lupus since I was 20 so practically a lifetime. I was not expected to live beyond 30 but here I am. It's a very long and bumpy road but it's still worth the ride. A cure may be found in your lifetime - I think stem cells are our best option. Probably too far ahead for me but definitely not for you. Get a top specialist you can trust and rely on. That show House makes me laugh but it has brought Lupus into the open. All the best.
