My Journey with Systemic Lupus Part 2
🌟 Hello! Here's part two of my lupus journey. 🌟 After being diagnosed with systemic lupus, I was on methotrexate and prednisone, which made me sick often. Right before my wedding, I was told I might gain 100 pounds! 😳 At 21, it was a scary and uncertain time. I worked out constantly to avoid the weight gain, and while I didn't gain the weight, the experience was tough. Stay tuned next week for part 3 of my journey!
My Journey with Systemic Lupus Part 1
🌟 Hi! I’m sharing part 1 of my journey with systemic lupus, diagnosed in December 2009 after a year of symptoms. Lupus is an autoimmune disease that can attack your skin, muscles, organs, and joints. For me, it caused severe fatigue, hair loss, swollen lymph nodes, weakness, and trouble with grip strength. It was tough to diagnose because symptoms vary and mimic other conditions. Through sharing, I hope to raise awareness and connect with others. Feel free to reach out with questions! 💜
