@ohyeaforme It's hard to balance when to use them isn't it?

I am so sorry that you have to feel this way. I was recently told i have lupus and ive found that the only thing that works for my aches and pains has been medical marijuana. I feel the same way you do, sore and worn down like ive been pulling a bus by my ankles. Its hard to get up in the morning, just a task as simple as washing my hair is an issue. my mother worries about my hygene because its just too much effort to lift my arms and wash my hair. Stay strong. <3

Thank you for posting this. I have lupus and I have been doing ok. I have bad days just like everybody else. Right now, the worst is the fatigue. I can barely keep my eyes open. I just had a "well meaning" friend tell me that I just need to get some exercise. Im so pissed right now. Unless you have lupus or seen its effects up close, dont judge.

I was diagnosed with SLE when i was 13. Im 17 and still goin strong. I was able 2 graduate from hs and i pray a lot. Lupus really sux but i push myself 2 be strong.

i understand how you feel. My mom had lupus when i was young and I would see her in pain. It was awful She fiunally died from it in '98 when I was four. i am 16 now and I am trying to help those who have it by donating to the LFA and helping people find out about it. My heart goes out to you and I hope that you may live healthy and happy.

I know exactly how you feel. I'm 20 years old and I also have Lupus. And then some. The most trouble I have with Lupus is remembering. Trying to remember something you just said 2 minutes ago is a challenge. The fatigue gets to me everyday but because of my other disease they doctors told me I HAVE to walk everyday. I CANNOT sit or lay down all day. SO try doing that when you have no strength to get your body off the bed and up and going. Don't judge if you don't know.

@hondurasful You should definitely keep seeing your doctor and demand answer. Ask for a lupus panel blood test. I haven't heard of the fingernail thing as a symptom, but I hope you find the answers you seek very soon.
